Son Heung-min (34, LAFC) has scored again. This marks his third consecutive game with a goal explosion.
On the 26th (Korea time), Son Heung-min shook the net in just the fifth minute of the first half during the 18th round home match against Sporting Kansas City at BMO Stadium in the United States, part of the 2026 Major League Soccer (MLS) season.
Son Heung-min did not miss the opportunity that arose from a counterattack. A pass from his teammate struck an opposing defender and trickled into the space behind the defense, where Son Heung-min surged forward with explosive speed to chase it down.
Although the opposing defender tried desperately to stop Son Heung-min's breakthrough even by using his hands, Son Heung-min managed to take a shot despite the defender's interference and shook the net.
Immediately after scoring, Son Heung-min performed an energetic dance celebration with his teammates. He also did not forget his signature snap-style celebration.
Video review was conducted regarding Son Heung-min's goal situation, but the referee confirmed the goal after consulting with the Video Assistant Referee (VAR) without conducting a full field review.
With this goal, Son Heung-min achieved three consecutive goals in MLS following his matches against LA Galaxy and Real Salt Lake, marking his third league goal of this season. His MLS record stands at 3 goals and 9 assists.
