I’m not happy to see the full-time performance.
Lee Kang-in of Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) started and played full-time in the sixth round of the 2024-2025 French League 1 against Stade Ren at the Parc des Princes in Paris, France on the 28th (Korea time). Lee Kang-in led PSG to a 3-1 victory by scoring his team’s second goal in the 13th minute of the second half.
It was literally an “insane performance.” Not only did Lee Kang-in score a goal, but he also led PSG’s offense with outstanding performances including six key passes and a 93 percent pass success rate. As a striker, he moved freely and performed a zero-top role. The game showed off multiplayer’s talent, ranging from winger and midfielder to striker.
Soccer statistics firm Huscoordcom gave Lee a rating of nine. It was the second highest score after Bradley Barcola (9.7 points) with two goals.
Despite stellar performance, Lee is not welcome to play full-time. This is because PSG will play the second leg of the UEFA Champions League group stage in China. PSG will play an away game against Arsenal on October 2.
For PSG, the Champions League is more important than League 1. More emphasis is placed on the Champions League, which has never been at the top yet, compared to League 1, which wins like a meal. It can be said that the starting players in the Champions League are close to the main players. 안전놀이터
Lee Kang-in has been actively engaged in various positions this season, but PSG coach Luis Enrique does not leave him to the top 11 of the Champions League. The situation is not much different from that of the last season. In the first match against Girona, Lee started the game from the bench.
It appears that Arsenal cannot enter the best 11 match. Enrique brought Barcola and Usman Dembele to the bench in the second half. Barcola was replaced in the 24th minute of the second half and Dembele in the 37th minute of the second half. Midfielder Fabian Lewis, who started the match, was also excluded. This can be seen as a stepping stone for the match against Arsenal.
On the other hand, Lee Kang-in played full time without replacement. As he did not plan his physical stamina, chances are high that he will be substituted in the match against Arsenal.
Lee Kang-in is a highly greedy player. Given his presence and influence on the team this season, Lee deserves to be selected. However, Enrique rarely chooses Lee as his main player. Despite his stellar performance at full-time, Lee somehow remains bitter.
