The pen miss by Son costly as LAFC loses to 9 man Vancouver. season over and some reflection for him and the team to come, but credit to Son for LAFC’s comeback to bring game to overtime. Several golden chances went begging and LAFC paid for their lack of ruthlessness despite 2 man advantage.

The quality of Lee Kang-in’s cross is exquisite, the velocity and flight of the diagonal ball that floats just overhead of Ghana’s defense and into the trajectory of Lee Tae-seok at the far post…it’s breathtaking. It’s also the sole game winning goal. 🇰🇷⚽️🔥Video credit: theKFA

Lee Tae-seok headed in winning and only goal between Korea and Ghana in the 63rd min- cross provided by Lee Kang-in. Korea’s 2 wins, 3 goals and none conceded makes it a positive-ish international break for Hong Myung-bo’s side

100 - Lee Kang-in could make his 100th appearance for PSG. He has been involved in an average of 6.9 shots every 90 minutes this season (23 shots and 28 chances created in 664 minutes), the highest ratio among Ligue 1 players with 500+ minutes in all competitions. Milestone.
