Kang-in Lee, who plays for Mallorca in the Spanish professional football Primera Liga, started, but could not prevent the team from losing.
Lee Kang-in started in the 2022-2023 La Liga round 17 away game held at El Sadar Stadium in Pamplona, Spain and played until the 39th minute in the second half before being replaced by Angel Rodriguez.
Lee Kang-in, who was put in as a substitute in the 17th minute of the second half in the 16th round against Real Valladolid on the 8th, returned as a starter after two league games.
Lee Kang-in, who has recently been reported to be interested in signing Newcastle and Aston Villa, as well as other European clubs, was active on the ground that day, showing off his unique sharp kick in a set-piece situation.
However, he failed to increase his league offensive points this season from two goals and three assists amid the team's 1-0 loss.
In the 39th minute of the first half when the 0-0 balance continued, Lee Kang-in received a yellow card for delay when preparing for a free kick.
When a warning came out while listening to coach Javier Aguire's instructions, Lee Kang-in covered his head with both hands and couldn't hide his embarrassed expression.
As a result, Lee Kang-in, who recorded the 5th warning in the league this season, will not be able to play in the 18th round against Celta Vigo on the 21st, and is expected to return to the match against Cadiz on the 28th.
There is no hindrance to the Copa del Rey (King's Cup) Round of 16 match against Real Sociedad on the 18th.
Mallorca was unable to recover a goal conceded by Aimar Oros in the 2nd minute of the second half and kept 10th place in the league (22 points).
Whoscored.com, which specializes in soccer statistics, gave Lee Kang-in a rating of 6.0.
This is the third lowest score among Mallorcan players after Jaume Costa (5.6 points), Dani Rodriguez and Abdon Pratz (more than 5.9 points).
