Eagle-eyed fans spot moment Son’s international team-mate ‘did him dirty’ by helping keeper save penalty vs Tottenham
FANS have spotted the moment Son Heung-min’s South Korea team-mate Hwang Hee-chan told keeper Jose Sa which way to dive for his penalty.
Wolves shot-stopper Sa, 31, saved Son‘s spot kick in the 43rd minute of their 2-2 draw at Spurs on Sunday.
With the score level at 1-1 at the time of the penalty – which was awarded after Brennan Johnson was brought down – the Tottenham captain took his time before stepping up.
And as he composed himself, fans could see Wolves striker Hwang, 28, pointing for Sa to dive to his right – as Spurs defender Radu Dragusin tried to get in front of him.
But Portuguese keeper Sa took the advice and it paid off as he thwarted the South Korean, who plays with Hwang at international level.
Reacting to Hwang’s gesture one fan said: “Hwang Hee-chan did Sonny DIRTY!”
While another added: “It was Hwang who told Jose Sa that Son would shoot in that direction .”
And a third replied: “Radu Dragusin tried his best to stop him.”
Tottenham went in front just two minutes after the penalty miss through Johnson.
But Jorgen Strand Larsen’s late equaliser piled more pressure on Spurs boss Ange Postecoglou.
