Expressing his joy after winning the award, Son said, “I got really emotional. I dreamed of it as a child. Literally, it’s my in hands. I can't believe it.’ "Until my goal I was really frustrated that I missed big chances. I told the players I missed the easiest chances and scored one of the toughest ones. "I didn't give up. I wanted to score today. The team helped me a lot at half-time. They wanted to help me, you could see it today."
