Tottenham were completely defeated in frustration. Tottenham lost 0-4 against Newcastle in the 33rd round of the English Premier League in the 2023-24 season at St. James' Park in Newcastle, England on the 13th. With no loss in three recent league games (two wins and one draw), Tottenham ended up ranking fifth with 60 points and +16 goals scored, falling behind Aston Villa (60 points and +17 goals scored). Aston Villa will play Arsenal on Thursday. Eddie Howe, the manager of the home team Newcastle, chose 4-3-3. The frontline three-top consisted of Alexander Isak, Anthony Gordon and Harvey Barnes. Aliot Anderson, Bruno Guimarães and Sean Longstaff stood in the midfield. The back four consisted of Dan Burn, Fabien Shea, Emile Kraft and Jacob Murphy. The goalkeeper's gloves were worn by Martin Dubravka. Tottenham's coach Enze Postecoglou fought 4-2-3-1. After placing Son at the front line, Brennan Johnson, James Maddison, and Timo Werner were chosen for the second term. Yves Bissouma and Rodrigo Bentancur were chosen for the third term. The back four consisted of Destiny Udogi, Mickey van der Ben, Christian Romero, and Pedro Grape. Guglielmo Vicario kept the goal. Son played the shortest period of time among the matches he started in the league this season. Son, who played in 29 league matches this season, started all of the matches except for his substitution in the 24th round with Brighton in February, right after the Asian Football Confederation (AFC) Asian Cup. He played full-time or close to that in most of the games he started. The earliest he was replaced was in the 24th minute in the second half (against Liverpool in the seventh round in September last year). He left the field earlier on the day. He failed to add offensive points from 15 goals and nine assists, and pushed his 10-goal-10 breakthrough for the next time in three years. In the beginning, the game was rather tight. However, Newcastle started taking the lead by scoring goals in the 30th and 32nd minutes of the first half. Anthony Gordon overcame a challenge with the defense in the 30th minute of the first half to launch a counterattack and poke a pass, and Alexander Isak beat the defense in the center of the penalty area to open the goal first with a right-footed finish. Then, in about two minutes, Pedro Porro's back pass fell into an ambiguous place between the defenses in the penalty area, and Newcastle had a chance again, and this time Gordon solved it with his right foot directly from the left side of the goal area to make the second goal. Tottenham doubled its tally of 238 passes in the first half to 106 at Newcastle. However, with three backs and left and right wingbacks down, the team's offense continued to feel frustrated. In contrast, Newcastle took its lead. Tottenham's forward pressure and balls resulting from mistakes in the build-up led to their scoring. In the 6th minute of the second half, an additional run involving Son Heung-min came out. Son Heung-min lost the ball to Bruno Guimarães in Newcastle's midfield, and Isak received a long pass that Guimarães had aimed for the back space and scored a right-footed shot from the left side of the goal area to make the victory early. Tottenham, which was on the defensive, tried to change the atmosphere by changing Son Heung-min to Kulusevski in the 13th minute of the second half and sending out Pape Sarr and Pierre-Emile Hoivier instead of Yves Bissouma and Rodrigo Bentancur, but it was not easy to break through Newcastle, which faced off with an organized defense. On the contrary, Tottenham lost an additional point. In the 42nd minute, Newcastle Fabian Shea's header wedge goal completely dampened Tottenham's willingness to pursue. Manager Enze Postecoglou kept up his style of aggressive and strong pressure throughout the game. However, it didn't work throughout the game, and Tottenham was completely defeated. Not being stubborn can be a good choice, but that choice often leads to regret. In fact, there were cases where Son Heung-min won 2-1 after losing 0-1 to Fulham or struggling with Luton Town's defense. Meanwhile, Huskydoc, which specializes in soccer statistics, gave Son 5.9 points, the fourth-lowest rating among Tottenham players. Newcastle's Gordon, who had one goal and two assists, received a perfect score of 10.
