Tottenham got their first win of the season in the Champions League on Tuesday night as they recorded a 1-0 win at CSKA Moscow.
In the wake of Harry Kane’s injury manager Mauricio Pochettino has turned to South Korean winger, Son Heung-Min to fill the, rather considerable, void left by the England international.
The 24-year-old has not disappointed so far, having bagged five goals in as many games thus far this season, having missed the first two Premier League games due to his involvement in the Rio Olympics.
He continued his fine form on Tuesday, scoring Spurs’ only goal in the Russian capital after scoring both goals in the 2-1 over Middlesbrough in the league on Saturday.
Having bagged three goals in just two games the winger is popular amongst fans of the North London side at the moment and they took to Twitter to praise their hero after the Champions League win…
