Tottenham star Son Heung-min‘s Asian Cup journey ends in disappointment as South Korea falls short in the semi-finals against Jordan! The star forward, known for his electrifying performances, couldn’t steer his team to victory, ultimately dashing hopes of Asian Cup glory.
The match, held at the Ahmed bin Ali Stadium, witnessed a gripping battle, but South Korea succumbed to a 2-0 defeat against a resilient Jordanian side. Yazan Al-Naimat and Musa Al-Taamari’s strikes sealed Son’s fate, leaving fans devastated.

During his stint in Qatar, Son showcased his brilliance, notching up three goals and an assist, including a sensational free-kick against Australia in the quarter-finals. However, his heroics weren’t enough to secure South Korea’s triumph.
