The South Korean was being disingenuous with his behaviour in the aftermath to the injury he inadvertently caused, the pundit says
Son Heung-min went 'over the top' with his emotional reaction to Andre Gomes' injury in a problem symptomatic of today's footballers, according to Stan Collymore.
Tottenham's South Korean international was in tears after his tackle on Everton opponent Gomes resulted in the Portuguese midfielder falling awkwardly on Serge Aurier and suffering a fracture-dislocation of his right ankle.
While Collymore believes distress in that situation is standard behaviour, the former Liverpool star accused Son of exaggerating his emotions following the incident in order to soften public opinion and he thinks it's a problem rife throughout the sport.
