Video: Son Heung-Min with sensational strike for Tottenham

After a pretty exciting 2-2 draw in the first FA Cup 3rd round tie between Tottenham and Leicester City the two sides are meeting Wednesday to settle it once and for all.

With fixture congestion being a major concern for both clubs, both teams sported some rotated sides, giving Spurs striker/winger Son Heung-Min a chance to start as a striker. Son had been a tremendous signing this season as his vision and runs have created plenty of space for star striker Harry Kane.

Nevertheless recently Son has found himself on the bench many times during Spurs recent league games as manager Mauricio Pochettino seems to prefer playing Dele Alli in an attacking role, forcing Christian Erikson out wide and Son to the bench. Many Spurs fans have been wondering what Son needs to do to get back in to the first team after seemingly falling out of favor, perhaps this goal will help his case.
