Accordingly, PSG achieved overwhelming victories of 4–1 and 6–0 in the first and second rounds.

Lee Kang-in, who scored in two consecutive games, tried to score three goals in a row, but failed to increase his attack points in today’s game.

Bradley Barcola was replaced by Lee Kang-in in the 29th minute of the second half and played about 20 minutes.

PSG took the lead in the 33rd minute of the first half with Vita Machado Ferreira’s penalty kick.

Then, in the 36th minute of the first half, Barcola, who was exchanging the ball with Asensio, took advantage of the perfect opportunity to score an extra goal and PSG ended the first half with a score of 2-0.

In particular, Barcola scored in the first three consecutive matches and is second in the league in this category (4 goals).

PSG allowed Lille’s Edon Zegrova to chase a goal down in the 23rd minute of the second half, but in the 47th minute of the second half, in the last minute of the game, Randall Kolo Muani’s clean header made it 3-1. victory
