Tottenham Hotspur defeated Everton 2-1 in the 18th round of the Premier League (PL) in the 2023-24 season held at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London, England, at 0:00 a.m. on the 24th (Korea time). With this, Tottenham advanced to fourth place by dropping Manchester City (34 points), which had 11 wins, three draws and four losses (36 points), one game less.
Hishalisson has been selected as the front line for three consecutive games. Hishalisson had previously been sluggish, scoring only one goal in the PL until October. Then, he underwent groin surgery. According to the interview, discomfort in the groin area has existed since the beginning of this year, and he was forced to endure it and ended up on the operating table. Coincidentally, he scored multiple goals in the match against Newcastle in the 16th round, which was his first start after returning from injury, and scored a goal in the match against Nottingham in the 17th round, signaling his revival.
He also served as a troubleshooter against Everton. In the ninth minute of the first half, Brennan Johnson hit a grounder cross on the right side after receiving a through pass from Pape Sarr. Hishalisson rushed the ball to the goalpost and kicked a simple shot. He thus scored in three consecutive games. 토토사이트 추천
Tottenham was able to take a two-point lead with Son’s additional goal after Hishalisson’s goal. He allowed a chasing goal at the end of the second half, but he was able to grab three points without conceding any more points.
Hishalisson received praise from his coach and captain. “Hishalisson plays as a teammate. He was injured before and was trying to recover. He just wasn’t in 100 percent of his physical condition. But now he is helping because he is a little more free mentally and physically. His performance after his return from the injury was really good, apart from his score,” said Enze Postecoglou in a press conference after the match.
Son Heung-min said, “Hishalisson had a similar experience to my last season. He is always hungry for scoring and playing. Now he is playing painlessly, and I am very happy that he has shown a completely different side as a player. If he continues this way, he can become one of the best strikers in the Premier League.”
