"Sony stepped on the lawn for the first time today and she said she felt better."
"Tottenham Captain" Son Heung-min is expected to return to the Europa League semifinals on the 2nd of next month.
Tottenham manager Angie Postecoglou updated the news on the extent of Son Heung-min's injury at an official press conference ahead of the away match in Liverpool on the 26th (Korea time).
Tottenham will embark on an away match against Liverpool at the English Premier League at 0:30 p.m. on Saturday (Korea time). If Liverpool defeats Tottenham, the team will confirm its early victory at home. On May 2, four days after the match, Tottenham will play the semi-final home game of the Europa League against Norway's Bodu/Glimt at home. Under Postecoglou this season, Tottenham will have the only chance to make up for its humiliation of falling to 16th place in the league and quench its thirst for a long-standing trophy.
Amid fans' attention on Captain Son Heung-min's return at a critical time, questions about this were also raised at the press conference.
Son Heung-min has not been on the ground due to a foot injury since the Europa League quarter-final first-round draw against Frankfurt on the 10th. He missed three consecutive games, including a loss against Wolverhampton in the league, a victory in the second leg against Frankfurt, which confirmed Tottenham's semifinal, and a loss against Nottingham Forest. On Son's current condition, Postecoglou said, "It is positive for us that Son is trying to recover and is getting better, but not on Sunday (against Liverpool). Except for the long-term injuries, all the other players in the last match have backed up well, and they are all in good condition." On Son's possibility to play in the first leg of the Europa League semifinal, he said, "We have to see." "As I said, he is improving. I heard that he feels better than before when he first stepped on the grass today. It is a matter to be decided every day," he said in a positive sign.
Asked if Son needed rest or treatment, he replied, "Both of them are a little bit." "The foot supports the weight, so you just need to give it a little rest and time to treat it," he said. "The most important thing is to rest the foot for a week and stabilize it so that it can start the process of returning to the ground." 카지노
After reporting Postecoglou's interview and Son Heung-min's injury in detail, Football London evaluated, "Son Heung-min did not have his best season by his high standards, but he proved that he is still an important part of Pochettecoglou's system with a total of 11 goals and 12 assists in 43 games for Tottenham, which has been struggling this season."
