Son Heung-min created history during Tottenham Hotspur’s 3-0 victory over Elfsborg in the Europa League on Thursday.
According to Softfootball, the South Korean forward set a new competition record after completing 10 dribbles from 11 attempts during the opening 45 minutes.
Son’s impressive display against Elfsborg saw him beat wing-back Simon Hedlund repeatedly as Tottenham dominated the match and secured a comfortable victory.

The Tottenham captain also enjoyed an influential attacking performance beyond his dribbling statistics.
Son created three chances for his teammates and attempted three shots, while also recording 10 touches inside the opposition penalty area.
The forward further attempted nine crosses as Spurs maintained their attacking threat throughout the encounter.
His performance underlined his continued importance to Tottenham as they look to make progress in the Europa League.
