Spurs fans notice how Son Heung-min reacted to going behind vs Watford

Tottenham fans and players have not had the happiest of times in the weeks leading up to the international break, and they would have been hoping that the two week break would give them chance to recharge and reset ahead of the Premier League encounter against bottom of the table Watford.

Mauricio Pochettino's men welcomed the Hornets to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, with their opponents the only club in the Premier League yet to record a win this season.

However, any hope that Spurs fans may have had that the difficulties were behind them were quickly dispelled when Abdoulaye Doucoure struck, to give the visitors a shock lead in the 6th minute.

The goal added to the building frustration around the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, and one player's reaction in particular summed up the feeling around the stadium.

Son Heung-min started the game on the bench, and a video of the South Korean's reaction to his team conceding the opening goal has emerged on social media.

The video shows the attacker slap his hands on his knees and slump back in his chair on the bench as Watford take the lead in a visible show of frustration.

Son came on as a substitute at half time to help Spurs pull a goal back and earn a point thanks to Dele Alli's goal with just four minutes left to play.

Tottenham will be looking to turn around their poor form when they face Red Star Belgrade in the Champions League on Tuesday evening.
