Arsenal started the match strongly, taking the lead in the 13th minute through Bukayo Saka’s tap-in. The hosts continued to dominate possession and create chances, but failed to extend their advantage. Tottenham, however, grew into the game as the half wore on.

With just 13 minutes remaining, Tottenham’s hopes seemed to be fading. However, Son emerged as the hero, scoring twice in quick succession to turn the game on its head. In the 79th minute, Son latched onto a through ball and coolly slotted it past Aaron Ramsdale. Just four minutes later, he was on hand to tap in an assist from Højbjerg, completing his brace. Arsenal tried to respond, but Tottenham held on for a memorable 3-1 victory. Son’s goals not only secured three vital points for his team but also moved him to the top of the Premier League’s goalscoring charts. The win saw Tottenham move up to fifth place in the standings, while Arsenal dropped to ninth. The result will no doubt add fuel to the intense rivalry between the two North London clubs.
