Son Heung-min will have a facial surgery, Taiji Tiger’s World Cup journey in crisis

Heracles Athletics, November 3, 2012. With 17 days left before the opening of the 2022 Qatar World Cup, it was announced yesterday that South Korea’s main man, Son Heung-min, had suffered a serious facial injury in the Champions League, and Tottenham Hotspur officials have announced that he will undergo surgery, making the South Korean team, which expects to challenge again for the top 16 or even better, very depressed. If the captain is absent, the Taiji Tigers’ journey to the World Cup this year will probably be a big change.

Heracles Athletics: Son Heung-min will have a facial surgery, Taiji Tiger’s World Cup journey in crisis

South Korean team worried

South Korea has never missed a World Cup since 1986, and Son has contributed 35 goals in 104 appearances since he put on the national team’s uniform, and has scored double-digit goals in six consecutive seasons in the Premier League, making him an indispensable starter in both the national team and the club. The Korean people in particular have high expectations for Son, although there are two other players in the Korean team who play in European leagues, Hwang Hee-chan of Wolves in the Premier League and Hwang Yi-suk of the Greek league, but the Korean media still said: “I can’t imagine that day (referring to Son’s inability to play) coming. “

Conservatives versus optimists

The South Korean team is divided into Group H with Uruguay, Cana and Portugal, and the three opponents are not idle. To break through to the last 16, the South Korean captain, Son Heung-min, is afraid to play the most important role. There are two versions of Sun’s injury, one believes that the recovery period after surgery is long and he is definitely out of the World Cup, while the other believes that if the recovery from surgery goes well, it is perfectly feasible to wear a facial brace for the game. However, whether or not you can have a fierce scramble and collision on the field is a different story, or safety is the priority.

According to Heracles Athletics, the Qatar World Cup will officially open on November 20, Beijing. The first match of Group H South Korea will be against Uruguay at 9pm on the 24th, whether or not he can play in the World Cup is another matter, but the recent 3 games of the EPL will definitely not see Son on the field, whether this will affect his play in the World Cup has become a big suspense for the South Korean team.
