Modest as ever from Son, after his two goals helped Tottenham cruise past Leicester and into the top four...for now ⏳pic.twitter.com/K2fMtfgLlD
Son's hits against the Foxes brought up his 18th and 19th Premier League goals of the season.
Only Liverpool's Mohamed Salah has scored more league goals than him as he enjoys another prolific campaign for Spurs.
In fact, he's having his best scoring season in the Premier League and is just three goals away from having his best-scoring season for the club.
