“Disappointed” Lee Kang-in expects Barca’s away bench
Will Lee Kang-in go down to the bench again?
Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) and Barcelona will meet at the second leg of the UEFA Champions League (UCL) quarterfinals at the 2023-24 season at the Luis Companis in the Estadi Olympics in Barcelona, Spain, at 4 a.m. on Thursday (Korea time). Let’s have a showdown.
In the first leg, PSG faced Barcelona in the Parc des Princes, only to lose. It was a thumping match. LaPinha scored the opening goal in the 37th minute to take the lead, but PSG countered with an equalizer from Usman Dembele in the 3rd minute and Vitinha in the 6th minute. It was not the end. LaPinha equalized in the 17th minute and Andreas Christensen’s comeback in the 32nd minute. In the end, PSG lost 2-3 to Barcelona.
Lee Kang-in, a midfielder for the Korean national team, started at Mejala, right. He stayed in the stadium for about 60 minutes and finished the game as he was replaced by promising new player Warren Jair Emery.
The main statistics recorded by Lee Kang-in on the day are 48 times of ball touch, 94% of pass success rate (34-32 times successful), 2 times of key passes, and 2 times of effective shooting. The 0% success rate of cross (five times-0 successful), the success rate of ground duel (three times-0 successful), and the 0 dribble feel somewhat disappointing.
Criticism poured in. France’s Foot Mercato criticized Lee for not understanding the role he played. “Lee just attempted a predictable attack from the right side,” Eurosport said. “I felt sorry for his body.”
With his trip to Barcelona imminent, Lee Kang-in has been excluded from the expected list. Soccer statistics media such as “Sofascore” and “WhoScored.com ” reported that coach Luis Enrique formed a 4-3-3 formation with Kylian Mbappe, Gonzalo Hamus, and Dembele, while Vitinha and Manuel Ugarte were expected to form Jair Emery in the midfield. Lee Kang-in was absent.
On the contrary, in Barcelona, which aims to solidify its position, Raphinha, Robert Lewandowski, Ramin Yamal, Frenkie de Jung, Ilkay Gundogan and Pedri are listed in the expected starting lineup.
