Son Heung-min Ends Scoring Streak but Earns Solid Rating in Leagues Cup Draw

Son Heung-min's streak of scoring in four consecutive official matches ended Wednesday as he played a full role in LAFC's 1-1 draw with Mexican club CD Guadalajara in the Leagues Cup. The South Korean forward started and played 86 minutes but could not find the back of the net.

Had Son scored, he would have matched his personal best of five consecutive goals, a record he set during his time with Tottenham Hotspur in the English Premier League. Instead, his performance included one shot on target and two key passes, with a pass success rate of 88%.

Football statistics site FotMob gave Son a rating of 7.0 for his performance, ranking him sixth among LAFC players. Another site, SofaScore, provided a similar rating of 6.9. Despite Son's goalless outing, LAFC secured a 5-4 victory in the penalty shootout, earning two points in the group stage. The team will face Toluca and Queretaro in their upcoming matches, aiming for consecutive wins to advance to the knockout stage.
