SEOUL, September 28 (AJP) - Los Angeles FC (LAFC) forward Son Heung-min scored two goals on Sunday, propelling his team to a 3-0 victory over St. Louis City SC at Energizer Park and extending his personal scoring streak to four consecutive Major League Soccer (MLS) matches.
Son registered his seventh and eighth goals of the season during the match. His first came in first-half stoppage time with a precise right-footed shot. He added his second in the 60th minute, calmly placing the ball into the bottom left corner from inside the penalty box.
The South Korean international's hot streak began on Sept. 14 against the San Jose Earthquakes, followed by a hat trick against Real Salt Lake on Sept. 18, and another goal against the same team on Sept. 22. This four-game run is his longest goal-scoring streak in regular league play since December 2021, when he played for Tottenham Hotspur in the English Premier League.
Son now has eight goals and two assists in just eight MLS appearances and has been key in LAFC securing four consecutive victories.
