Former Bundesliga pro Heung-Min Son has lost his nerve in a recent setback for Tottenham Hotspur in the Premier League. In the 0:2 (0:2) defeat of Spurs in the London derby against Chelsea, the South Korean kicked the German international Antonio Rüdiger lying on the ground in the stomach and then flew off the pitch with red (60th).
After four defeats in their past five league games, the Blues cemented fourth place in the Champions League with derby wins, distancing the seventh-placed Spurs, coached by star coach Jose Mourinho, by six points.
Willian (12th, 45th+4) became a matchwinner with a remarkable Schlenzer and a converted foul, caused by a kung fu kick from Spurs keeper Paulo Gazzaniga.
