Tottenham Hotspur’s Heung-Min Son scored twice against Huddersfield Town yesterday.

BT Sport pundit Ian Wright looks on prior to the Emirates FA Cup Semi-Final match between Arsenal and Manchester City at Wembley Stadium on April 23, 2017 in London, England.

Ian Wright has told Match of the Day, which was broadcast on BBC One on 3rd March, that Tottenham Hotspur attacker Heung-Min Son’s step-overs are unstoppable.

Son is proving to be one of Tottenham’s major attacking weapons this season, and he scored both of Spurs’s goals in their 2-0 victory over Huddersfield Town yesterday.

The South Korean showed all his ability with the ball at his feet, and Wright had nothing but praise for the South Korean after the match.

“He’s the one player, alongside Harry Kane, that you always feel does make a difference when he’s on the ball,” the former Arsenal striker said.

“He’s got the unstoppable step-over as well. He’s a super player. We’ve highlighted him a few times now. He’s an unbelievable player.”

Son’s first goal showed great composure, as he took the ball beyond Huddersfield goalkeeper, Jonas Lossl, before tucking it into the empty net.

The 25-year-old then headed home a wonderful pass from Harry Kane to seal the three points for Spurs.

Son may actually have had a chance of a hat-trick, but he was taken off just after the hour mark.

Tottenham’s victory has extended their unbeaten streak to 17 matches, with Mauricio Pochettino’s side in glorious form of late.

Spurs are now in fourth place in the Premier League table, and have put five points between themselves and their nearest rivals for a Champions League qualification place, Chelsea.
