Wonderful! This is how it goes. PSG's Lee Kang-in is the leading player in the come-from-behind victory with the winning goal AS, and Kook University's Minamino falls down!

However, there is a more important factor than this. What kind of performance did he have on the ground during his immediate participation. Even if he came out as a full-time starter, it is better to play an impactful performance even if he is replaced for a short time than to just walk out in vain.
Lee Kang-in (23) of Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) in the French League 1 showed just that. 25 minutes of substitution. It is a short time to play. However, he played his best while he was on the ground. In particular, in the 38th minute of the second half when the team was 2-2 as a corner kicker, he assisted Gonzalo Hamus' header-reversing goal with a 'Delivery Cross' that seemed to be measured with a ruler.
PSG, which scored the come-from-behind winning goal with the help of Lee Kang-in, was able to win a thrilling come-from-behind victory of 4-2 as Usman Dembele scored his second goal of the day in extra time in the second half. This is why Lee Kang-in's play stood out even more.

That's why winning was even more important. Coach Luis Enrique put Lee Kang-in on the bench while operating a 4-3-3 formation. It is undeniable that Lee Kang-in's performance has declined a little recently. Still, Enrique is evaluated as a `pro-Lee Kang-in-pa.' It is expected that Lee Kang-in will be used as a Joker.
This prediction hit the mark. Coach Enrique put in Lee Kang-in in the 20th minute of the second half, excluding left-side striker Bradley Barcola. Looking at the time left and the current score situation, you can see that it is a very important replacement point. You can fully see what role Enrique expects from Lee Kang-in.

PSG, who made it 3-2, took full control of the game. A self-congratulatory goal was scored in extra time in the second half. In the central area, Lewis poked a sharp pass in front of Dembele running forward. Dembele scored the net with a technical shot over the goalkeeper's height.

Lee Kang-in proved his presence with one shot, 87% pass success rate, one key pass and one dribble breakthrough. I almost added a goal. A shot in the second half of extra time hit the post. There was a little lack of luck. Still, it received good reviews.
The football statistics site Huscoordcom gave it a rating of 7.14. It was the sixth highest score in the team among the starting and replacing members. This is proof that he played well. Most of the other statistics sites also received 7 points.
On the other hand, AS Monaco's Japanese striker Takumi Minamino showed sluggish performance. Lee Kang-in won the 'indirect Korea-Japan match' by a landslide. Minamino was also substituted in the 28th minute of the second half, but he did not play much differently and only scored a 6.03 Huscoard rating. It's almost at the bottom.
