PSG won 2-0 in the round of 16 of the 2024-2025 Coupe de France at Stade Marie Marvin in Le Mans, France, at 5 a.m. on the 5th (Korea time). With this victory, PSG continued its cruise to win the Coupe de France.
Lee Kang-in played as a starter. PSG's overwhelming victory was expected, but PSG put in a large number of key players. Gonzalo Hamus, Desiree Doue and Khvicha Kravatz Helia worked together on the attack. Fabien Ruiz and Seni Mayulu participated in the midfield, centering on Lee Kang-in. The defense consisted of Crador Zagh, Lucas Veraldu, Willian Pacho and Luca Hernandez. Matvei Saponov defended the goal. Except for Maul and Zagh, they are all mainstream resources.
In the 8th minute of the first half, Khvicha caught the ball in PSG's attack and gave a cutback to Lee Kang-in in the penalty box. Lee Kang-in had a chance to shoot right away, but the defense blocked it first. Lee Kang-in fell when he stepped on the defense in the process of breaking through in the 16th minute of the first half, but fortunately, it was not a major injury. In the free kick obtained in this situation, Lee Kang-in recorded his first shot as he took the second ball as a shot.

Exactly 30 seconds later, Doue made up for his mistake. Le Mans gave up possession right in front of the penalty box. Due did not miss out this time in a better chance than the previous one. Since then, PSG has not given up its lead in the game. Lee Kang-in led the attack by receiving the ball from the back and spraying it forward.
In the 35th minute of the first half, Lee Kang-in also had an opportunity. Hbicha stabbed a good lobbing pass to Lee Kang-in, who penetrates into the penalty box. It was a perfect scoring chance if Lee Kang-in touched well, but a touch that was not like Lee Kang-in came out. PSG finished ahead of the first half.

PSG's right-hand attack became active as Ashraf Hakimi, who had good chemistry with Lee Kang-in, came in as a substitute. PSG, which continued to miss the opportunity to score additional goals, scored again in the 26th minute of the second half. Bradley Barcola, who came in as a substitute, was the main character. Mendes poked right into the space, and Barcola finished it himself after beating the defender with tremendous speed.
PSG did not stop its offensive. He created a decisive opportunity in the 28th minute of the second half. Khubitsa delivered to Hakimi on the counterattack after a corner kick. Lee Kang-in was next to Hakimi, but Hakimi chose to finish the one-on-one opportunity himself. However, Hakimi's shot was blocked by the goalkeeper.

Lee Kang-in played a good role in developing attacks in the midfield on the day. For Le Mans, a third-division team, the presence of Lee Kang-in was too much. Lee Kang-in recorded a 95% pass success rate despite fierce pressure from Le Mans players.
Rather than poking a decisive pass to his teammates, he focused on the assembly role to solve the attack from the back. It is often left to PSG coach Luis Enrique to appreciate Lee Kang-in's ability to manage the game. Lee Kang-in's ability to pass, who made five out of six long passes, proves this.

Like last season, Lee Kang-in and PSG are poised to sweep the French league and tournament. He has already won the French Super Cup and is overwhelmingly No. 1 in the league. The championship is likely to be won. In the Coupe de France, teams such as Marseille and AS Monaco were eliminated early, increasing the probability of winning the championship.
Lee Kang-in will play a league game against AS Monaco on the 8th. It is expected that Takumi Minamino will play a mini-Korea-Japan match.
