Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) national team midfielder Lee Kang-in (23) was on the pitch for 61 minutes, contributing to the team’s big win and undefeated streak of 25 games in a row. PSG’s Kylian Mbappe (26) scored multiple goals and set a new record for the most goals (254 goals) for a single club in French soccer history.

PSG defeated Lorient 4-1 in the 2023-24 Ligue 1 29th round match held at the Stade du Mustoir in Lorient, France on the 25th (Korean time).

PSG, undefeated in the last 25 games (18 wins, 7 draws), recorded 20 wins, 9 draws, and 1 loss (69 points), crossing the 9th division ridge for the championship.

PSG could have confirmed the championship immediately if second-place AS Monaco had not won that day, but Monaco also defeated Lille and maintained a glimmer of hope with 17 wins, 7 draws, and 6 losses (58 points), and the confirmation of the championship was postponed to a later date. But in fact, PSG’s probability of winning is 99%.

On this day, Lee Kang-in started as a starter and played diligently until he was replaced by Carlos Soler in the 16th minute of the second half. Lee Kang-in, who started 9 consecutive games in League 1, did not score any attack points, but performed well, touching the ball 36 times and recording a 90% pass success rate.

He has scored 2 goals and 2 assists in the league this season, and has 4 goals and 3 assists across all competitions.

PSG took the lead from the beginning with goals by Ousmane Dembele in the 19th minute and Mbappe in the 22nd minute.

Then, Dembele showed off his impressive firepower by scoring multiple goals in the 15th minute of the second half and Mbappe in the 45th minute of the second half. Lorient was only able to make up for a goal scored by Mohamed Bamba in the 28th minute of the second half.

PSG’s captain Mbappe set a meaningful record with multiple goals on this day.

Mbappe scored a total of 254 goals at PSG, surpassing the 253 goals scored by Roger Courtois at Sochaux in the 1930s, becoming the highest scorer for a single club in French soccer history. This is a great record achieved by Mbappe in 8 years after joining PSG in 2017.

In addition, Mbappe achieved his 25th and 26th goals in 27 games in Ligue 1 this season, becoming the first French player to score 25 goals in four consecutive seasons at a club in Europe’s top five leagues.
