Son appeared to be unsteady on his feet as he walked off.The score was 0-0 at the time. South Korea is playing at the World Cup, which starts in less than three weeks’ time in Qatar. Tottenham was already without forwards Richarlison and Dejan Kulusevski for a match the team only needed to draw to advance to the last 16.
