Son Heung-min, the South Korean football sensation, has made waves in the world of sports with his exceptional talent and dedication. His recent accomplishment of reaching the 100-goal milestone in European club football is an incredible testament to his hard work and skill. This article takes you on a journey through Son's remarkable career, highlighting the milestones that led to his momentous 100-goal achievement.

 

Throughout his time in European club football, Son has consistently demonstrated his goal-scoring process. His 100-goal milestone comprises goals scored for Hamburger SV, Bayer Leverkusen, and Tottenham Hotspur. Here his some notable highlights are:

1. Scoring his first Premier League hat-trick against Millwall in the 2016-17 FA Cup.

2. Netting a goal in the UEFA Champions League semi-final against Ajax, helping Spurs reach the final in the 2018-19 season.

3. Winning the 2020 Puskás Award for his incredible solo goal against Burnley in the 2019-20 Premier League season.

 

Son Heung-min has become the first Asian player to score 100 Premier League goals, adding yet another milestone to his already illustrious career.

 

Son reached the century mark with a 10th-minute strike against Brighton Hove Albion at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London on Saturday (local time). Additionally, Son is the first player to register 100 goals and 50 assists for Spurs. Tottenham secured a 2-1 victory in the match, elevating their position to fifth place, just three points behind Manchester United.

Son's right-footed shot from outside the box marked his seventh Premier League goal of the season and his 11th in all competitions. The 30-year-old attacker is the only Asian among 34 players with at least 100 goals in the Premier League.

 

The emotional Son dedicated his milestone goal to his late grandfather, who, according to Son, passed away earlier in the month.

 

"This was something that I dreamed for. It is an amazing achievement which I wouldn't have had without my teammates," he told BBC Sport afterward. "Scoring 100 goals in the Premier League is a massive thing. I was really emotional because I have had tough moments in the last few weeks. My granddad passed away, and it was not easy. I want to send that goal to him."

 

Son also said he hoped his success would inspire young Asian football players.

 

"I hope all the Asian players, especially in South Korea, look at this achievement and believe they can do it as well," Son said. "It's a good thing for Asia and I to take a big responsibility to be a good example to help the young guys. I want them to believe an Asian player can do amazing things in the Premier League."

 

Son's journey to 100 goals is a remarkable story of dedication, perseverance, and exceptional talent. As he continues to break records and etch his name into football history, fans around the world eagerly anticipate what the future holds for this South Korean superstar attacker.
