Lee Kang-in (Paris Saint-Germain) has been hit with a 'double slope'.
On the 10th (Korea time), Huscoordcom, a soccer statistics company, announced the 12th round of the French League 1 'Lee Joo-hee' on its SNS (Social Network Service) account from 2025 to 2026. Lee Kang-in was listed as the best 11 along with teammate Warren Zaire Emery.
Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) beat Lyon 3-2 in the away game of the French Ligue 1 in the 2025-2026 season at the Grupama Stadium in Lyon, France, on the 10th. PSG registered eight wins, three draws and one loss (27 points), regaining its league lead, which it gave up to Marseille (25 points) the day before.
Lee Kang-in's performance was at the center of the victory. He dominated the game at the most important moment. It was extra time in the second half when the game was tight at 2-2. Lyon's Nicolas Tagliafico hit Lee Kang-in in the face in the defense process. The referee immediately pulled out his yellow card. Taliafico was sent off for accumulating warnings. PSG, which had a numerical advantage, scored the winning goal just before the end of the game. João Neves completed the score with a header from Lee Kang-in's cross in the corner kick situation. PSG won the game with a dramatic score.

The game was very meaningful to Lee Kang-in. It was Lee Kang-in's 100th game in PSG uniform. Lee Kang-in left Real Mallorca (Spain) and joined PSG in the 2023-2024 season. So far, he has played 63 matches in the French League, 24 in the European Champions League (UCL), four in the FIFA Club World Cup, six in the Coupe de France (France Cup), two in the Trope de Champion (France Super Cup), and one in the UEFA Super Cup. According to PSG, Lee Kang-in scored 13 goals and 13 assists in 100 games. After the game, he received a medal from the club to commemorate his participation in 100 games. Through the club's official account "I'm really happy to win. I'm really happy to be able to play my 100th game at PSG. It's good to be able to help the team. I want to continue to show you great performances." PSG coach Luis Enrique congratulated Lee Kang-in on his 100th match at PSG. He's good at corner kicks. It has quality. We know him perfectly. He always tries to improve."

The French press Soput said 'Lee Kang-in has never been able to do it. It's just that it didn't get a good evaluation. As soon as Lee Kang-in transferred from Real Mallorca, he was locked in the frame that he was not a PSG class. PSG often judged even before they saw it. But he has never directly responded to any criticism. His sound was only play on the field. Some people expected to be pushed out of the team for the first time in six months. The 100th game can be a surprise. Lee Kang-in is not loud. It is playing a useful shadow role in PSG, which is becoming a team, not an individual. His input is a terror to his opponent.'
