Tottenham striker Heung-min Son: I needed these FA Cup goals

 


Tottenham striker Heung-min Son was delighted with his double in their FA Cup win at Preston.

Son admits the goals came as a personal relief

He said, “I needed those goals for my confidence. It was really important. It was the kind of position I like to shoot. In the first half I had a couple of chances to shoot but the keeper made a good save.

“As a striker or as an attacking player, the important thing is that you get that goal. It's important that I could help the team go to the next round. I'm very, very happy.

“When you look at the scoresheet it looks like a comfortable win, but the FA Cup has never been comfortable. We suffered a lot away from home. The lads did an amazing job.

“There's a lot to talk about our performance, but we were focused and did what we had to do. We can still improve so much. I think this game can give us good energy and let's move on to next weekend [at home to Manchester City]."
