Son Heung-min scored a contender for goal of the season in Tottenham Hotspur’s 5-0 win against Burnley on Saturday.
The South Korean dribbled with the ball from the edge of his own box past several Clarets players before slotting past Nick Pope (via Sky Sports).
It was an incredible goal by the 27-year-old, which led to his manager Jose Mourinho likening him to former Brazilian great Ronaldo – dubbing him “Sonaldo Nazario” (via YouTube).
Son is having another excellent season in north London and has already scored 10 goals and provided nine assists in 20 appearances in all competitions, and is rated at a whopping £72m by Transfermarkt due to his electric form.
It is fair to say that supporters were left drooling over the goal that he scored on Saturday and they were also buzzing with the comments that Mourinho made about the forward.
Here is what some had to say after reading the Portuguese’s comments on Twitter…
These two… 😍
