Jack Grealish labelled Heung-Min Son’s crossing as an ‘absolute scandal’ on his Instagram story as the Aston Villa man was impressed with the Tottenham forward during his side’s FA Cup thriller against Everton.

In a very un-Jose Mourinho-like game, both Spurs and Everton enthralled those in lockdown with one of the games of the season as they produced a 5-4 thriller on Wednesday evening at Goodison Park.

Nine goals were scored during the two-hour marathon, including Son providing two assists.

Harry Kane didn’t start the game, but he did come off the bench to, at the time, take the tie to extra time by making it 4-4.

Watching from the comfort of his own home, Villa’s £100 million rated expert ball-carrier (Telegraph), who knows a thing or two about laying a ball on a plate for strikers, had this to say about Son.

‘Nah, Son’s crossing in the game has been an absolute scandal’ added with laughing and clapping emoji.

Both Son and Kane are fast becoming one of the deadliest pairs in world football and a duo breaking records around them.

Whilst the duo would have been disappointed with last night’s defeat, they will quickly turn their attention to Premier League matters and hoping to secure Champions League football.

It is a small matter of dealing with a Manchester City team that has won 15 games on the bounce on Saturday.
