Son Heung-min made a heartfelt return to Tottenham Hotspur, contributing to a significant 3-0 victory over Slavia Prague in the Champions League. The match marked a crucial moment for Spurs and manager Arne Slot, who needed a morale boost after a difficult season.
Son's presence was felt immediately as he received a warm welcome from fans, having been a key figure in Spurs' recent history. His arrival added a much-needed lift to the squad, particularly following a period of uncertainty for both the team and Slot. Before the match, Son visited a mural honoring him, signifying the connection he maintains with the club.
In the game, Spurs showcased a determined performance, starting strong and eventually leading thanks to a combination of tactical adjustments by Slot.
