#3 Heung-Min Son could make the difference

Tuesday’s first leg was largely characterised by Tottenham’s lack of firepower; although their final ball was definitely lacking, decent chances were also missed throughout the game by the likes of Fernando Llorente and Danny Rose. Thankfully for Spurs fans, Wednesday night’s return leg could be very different due to the fact that while star striker Harry Kane is still out, the man who has most ably deputised for him throughout the season will be available.
Rapid South Korean forward Heung-Min Son was suspended for Tuesday’s game due to picking up a booking in the second leg of the quarter-final tie against Manchester City, but he’s likely to start on Wednesday and he could make all the difference that Tottenham need to turn this game around.
Son already has 20 goals and 7 assists for Tottenham this season – with 4 of those goals coming in the Champions League. And he certainly has a knack for popping up to score important goals too, as we witnessed in both legs against Manchester City, and also when he scored key goals to help Spurs defeat Watford, Newcastle, Leicester and Crystal Palace in Premier League action.
While Llorente – and even players like Dele Alli and Lucas Moura – is less clinical in front of goal, the South Korean is second only to Kane when it comes to finishing capability for Spurs. If Tottenham can give him a chance on Wednesday, he could well score the key goals to send them through this tie.
