[마이데일리 = 심재희 기자] Even when things were going well early in the season, few expected it to fall apart this way. This year there was a lot of hope that we could compete for the championship until the end of the season. However, he wobbled like a lie and moved further away from the lead, making it difficult to get 4th place, which was the final goal. Tottenham Hotspur in the English Premier League (EPL), where Son Heung-min plays, is sinking.
Tottenham took the lead at the start of the season. In 10 matches, they have an undefeated record of 8 wins and 2 draws. They swept 26 points and ranked first in the standings. The whistle blew with reigning champions Manchester City, Liverpool and Arsenal all below. They also sang an anthem in hopes of winning the EPL for the first time in 63 years.
However, she collapsed on the 11th lap. They lost 1-4 in the home match against Chelsea in the 11th round and lost 1-2 in the away match against Wolverhampton Wanderers in the 12th round. In the 13th round home match against Aston Villa, they lost 1-2. There was only one draw and 4 defeats in 5 matches from rounds 11 to 15. Afterwards, they bounced back by winning three matches in a row, but their performances fluctuated and they fell away from the leaders.
As I reached the middle or end of the season, I revised my goals. They are aiming for fourth place to qualify for next season’s UEFA Champions League. But recently, things are taking the worst path again. After a fierce battle for the table with Aston Villa, they fell into a quagmire of four consecutive defeats. Starting with a 0-4 away loss to Newcastle, the team lost 2-3 at home to Arsenal, lost 0-2 away to Chelsea and lost 2-4 away to Liverpool.

To date, they have played 35 matches and recorded 18 wins, 6 draws, 11 losses and 60 points. They scored 26 points in the first 10 games of the season, but the team fluctuated over the next 25 games, adding only 34 points. He is 7 points behind 4th place Aston Villa (67 points). They have one more game left than Aston Villa, but they can’t move up to fourth place alone. After winning the remaining three games, Aston Villa found themselves in a position where they were hoping to gain two points or less from two games. If Aston Villa add a win, Tottenham’s hopes of fourth place will disappear. Tottenham have also faced a sad reality this season.
