He analyzed, “Today’s victory will help relieve some of the pressure on Coach Klinsmann, who took office about a year ago but is not popular with Korean fans.”

AP and AFP also included Son Heung-min in the title. In an article titled ‘Son wins in overtime, sends Korea to the Asian Cup semifinals against Jordan’, AP said, “Son Heung-min gave Korea a dramatic 2-1 victory in overtime against Australia in the Asian Cup quarterfinals on Friday. “With this victory, Korea maintained its hopes of winning the Asian Cup for the first and third time since 1960,” the report said. “Although this win is not the way we want to win, we were ready to fight hard. A win like this will help the morale of the entire team. Son Heung-min's interview remarks were also detailed, saying, "I was really touched by the sacrifices made by everyone on the team, and every member of the team deserves praise."

In an article titled ‘Son Heung-min’s magic brought Korea to the semifinals of the Asian Cup against Jordan’, AFP said, “At the end of the second half, when Korea’s defeat was deepening, they received a foul and a penalty kick from Lewis Miller, and an exquisite free kick in the 14th minute of extra time. “Thanks to the performance of Son Heung-min, who has succeeded so far, Korea won the game,” he said.

Reuters also said in an article titled ‘Son led Korea to the Asian Cup semifinals with an overtime win against Australia’, “Korea came from behind to win 2-1 in overtime against Australia thanks to Son Heung-min’s exquisite free kick winning goal, and advanced to the Asian Cup 4th. “We entered the river,” the report said. This news agency introduced the fact that Korea scored in the 2015 Asian Cup final, which it lost to Australia, and Son Heung-min said in relation to this, “Losing the Asian Cup to Australia was painful, but it cannot be called revenge. “It’s part of soccer, and the results helped me mature as a player,” he said in an interview.

The Asian Football Confederation (AFC) also posted an article on its website titled 'Son plays a leading role as Korea gets back on track', highlighting Son Heung-min's performance and praising him as 'super Son'. The federation said, “With the incredible free kick goal, Son Heung-min’s total number of goals in the Asian Cup reached 7. “The only players who have scored more goals than Son Heung-min since the 2007 tournament are Qatar’s Almoez Ali (10 goals) and United Arab Emirates (UAE) Ali Mabkut (9 goals),” he explained.
