The British media Daily Mail reported that Son Heung-min was angry after he was blatantly denied a penalty kick in the warm-up match between South Korea and Saudi Arabia at St. James' Park in Newcastle, England, early on the 13th (Korea Standard Time).
On this day, Son Heung-min had a perfect chance to score. Son Heung-min, who received a pass from Cho Kyu-sung in the 35th minute of the first half, faced the goalkeeper one-on-one in the penalty box. At this time, center back Hasan Altambacti walked Son Heung-min's leg with a deep tackle. Son Heung-min fell down. It was a clear foul.
Son Heung-min expected the referee to point to the penalty point. But Premier League referee Andy Madley ignored. There was no video reading (VAR).
South Korea defeated Saudi Arabia 1-0 with Cho Kyu-sung's header in the 32nd minute of the first half. It is the first victory in six games since Jürgen Klinsmann took office.
Meanwhile, the match took place at the iconic northeast stadium due to the ties between Newcastle and Saudi Arabia.
