Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) won 3-2 against Lyon in the 23rd round of the French League in the 2024-2025 season at the Grupama Stadium in Lyon, France, on the 24th (Korea time). With the victory of this game, PSG has solidified its lead by continuing its unbeaten streak of 23 league games this season.
Home team Lyon pulled out a 4-3-3 formation. Ernest Nouama, Rayan Sherki and Malik Fofana were among the front-line three-top players. Nemanja Matic, Tanner Tessman and Korantin Tulisso worked together in midfield. Sael Kumvedi, Clinton Mata, Musa Niakate and Nicolas Tagliafico made up the back four, while Lucas Perry kept the goal.
PSG fought back with a 4-3-3 formation. Bradley Barcola, Usman Dembele and Hvicha Kvaratshelia were among the front-line three-tops, while João Neves, Vitinya and Desiree Doue were among the midfielders. Four backs were built by Nuno Mendes, Lucas Veraldu, Marquignos, and Ashraf Hakimi. The goalkeeper's gloves were worn by Gianluigi Donnarumma.

Lyon also fought back. Kumbedi's shot aimed at the PSG goal in the 28th minute of the first half, but Donnarumma blocked the ball heading into the corner to overcome the crisis. PSG's offensive also failed to cross the goal line. In the 34th minute of the first half, Dembele, who received Barcola's pass, attempted a powerful right-footed shot from outside the box, but was blocked by a good defense and swallowed the disappointment. The first half ended 0-0.

Lyon didn't give up the game until the end. In the 38th minute of the second half, Sherki received a pass from Mikautaje and crossed the PSG goal, changing the atmosphere of the game.
However, there was Lee Kang-in at PSG. The atmosphere of the game was prevented from going over. In the 40th minute of the second half, Lee Kang-in received a pass from Gonzalo Hamus in the box and handed the pass to Hakimi instead of overdoing it. With Hakimi finishing it calmly, PSG took the lead again. Later, Tolisso scored one goal and Lyon chased, but PSG had already caught the victory. The match ended with a 3-2 victory for PSG.

However, the fact that its position has been shaky since the winter transfer market is an unsettling factor. Lee Kang-in has significantly decreased the number of times he has been used as an offense since Khvicha Kvaratshelia joined in the winter transfer market. In the last five games, only one start has been made, and all four other games have played less than 30 minutes.
Some French media have also poured out criticism. French commentator Pierre Menes thinks Lee Kang-in is too plain and unappealing. It's annoying to see Lee Kang-in as a starter or as a substitute in every game he plays. He also pointed out that "Lee Kang-in seems to be good at selling uniforms at least."
In response to the controversy, Enrique said, `Lee Kang-in is an immeasurably valuable player. What high-level players have in common is criticism."
