Lee Kang-in and Mbappe were saved for UCL

The league’s overwhelming No. 1 team drew with the last team. It’s a shocking result.

Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) had a 1-1 draw against Clermont in the 28th round of the French League in the 2023-24 season in Paris, France, on the 7th.

PSG is the overwhelmingly top-ranked team in the league, while Clermont is the last. The top-ranked team tied with the last-ranked team. PSG was dragged around by Hive Keita in the 32nd minute, allowing the first goal. And Gonzalo Hamus’ equalizer in the 40th minute of the second half managed to draw 1-1.

PSG pushed ace Kylian Mbappe to the bench. Key midfielder Lee Kang-in also started as a bench. With the game not working out, PSG put Mbappe and Lee Kang-in on the line at the same time in the 22nd minute of the second half. It certainly worked. Lee Kang-in and Mbappe revitalized PSG’s frustrating attack. The equalizer was also finished by Hamus, who received Mbappe’s pass. It was a game that proved that Mbappe and Lee Kang-in were essential for PSG’s attack. 스포츠토토

Huskored, a statistical media outlet, gave Lee an easy rating of 6.4 points. Hamus, the winner of the equalizer, received the highest rating of 8.2 points. Mbappe, the goaltender, scored 6.8 points.

After the match, Britain’s BBC also expressed its surprise at the fact that the top-ranked team tied with the bottom-ranked team. The media outlet said, “PSG, the top-ranked team in the French League, had a draw with Clermont, the lowest-ranked team. PSG attempted 23 shots and had a 72 percent share, but failed to win. It is shocking.”

Against the team at the bottom, PSG was taking it easy. Why? It seems as if PSG has virtually confirmed its league title. It is overwhelmingly first with 63 points. It is 13 points behind second place. The most important thing for PSG is not the league. It is the UCL of the UEFA Champions League. Although it is considered one of the big clubs in Europe, PSG has never won the UCL title.

PSG will play the first leg of the UCL quarterfinals at home on the 11th. The opponent is Barcelona, a prestigious Spanish club. For this match, PSG saved key players against the last-place team. Mbappe was excluded from the starting line-up, and so was Lee Kang-in. Therefore, it can be interpreted that Lee Kang-in along with Mbappe is likely to start the first leg of the UCL quarterfinals against Barcelona.
