PSG's Streak Ends in Draw Against Auxerre

Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) faced a disappointing 0-0 draw against AJ Auxerre in their latest Ligue 1 match, marking their third consecutive official match without a victory. The match took place at the Stade de Labey Deschamps on December 6, 2024, and saw PSG maintain their lead in the league standings with 34 points from 14 matches, despite recent struggles that included two draws and a loss to Bayern Munich in the UEFA Champions League.

Lee Kang-in's Performance

Lee Kang-in, who started the match, was active in the attack but failed to contribute any goals or assists. He had several attempts on goal, including a blocked header and two mid-range shots that either missed or were saved by Auxerre's goalkeeper Donovan Leon, who earned the highest match rating of 9.4. Despite PSG's dominance in possession (73%) and total shots (25), they could not find the back of the net, with Leon's performance being pivotal in securing a point for Auxerre, who climbed to 8th place in the league with 20 points.

Upcoming Challenges for PSG

The draw comes as PSG prepares for a crucial UEFA Champions League match against Salzburg. Coach Luis Enrique's side, which has been without key player Ousmane Dembélé due to suspension, will need to regroup quickly to regain their winning form. The team has shown potential with players like Kang-in and Gonçalo Ramos, but consistency will be essential as they navigate a busy schedule ahead.
