Kim Min-soo, an 18-year-old prospect who is growing up in Girona, Spain, recorded help in his UEFA Youth League debut.

Girona U19 won 2-0 over Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) U19 in the first round of the 2024-2025 UEFA Youth League League Phase at PSG on campus in Poissy, near Paris, France on the 18th (Korea time).

The Youth League will be played in the same match as the UEFA Champions League. This is why the youth league matches will be held on the same day as the top-tier Korean players.

Kim played full time as one of Girona's strikers. Girona led the way with Juan Arango's first goal in the 11th minute of the first half. Kim beat the defense in the 22nd minute of the first half and managed to block a strong shot that he boldly attempted, targeting PSG in collaboration with his teammates.

Kim Min-soo's help came in the 31st minute of the second half. The free kick that Kim Min-soo put up with his sharp right foot flew toward the gate. It was the perfect ball for Enic Garcia to finish with a heading goal.

When Girona advanced to the UCL this season with a 3rd-place sensation in Spain's La Liga last season, Girona U19 was also authorized to participate in the youth league. Kim Min-soo, who has been playing Spanish tournaments in Girona's second division, began to gain experience in international competitions through the youth league and showed his presence from the first game. 메이저사이트

Kim Min-soo is a promising player who received attention by extending his contract with Girona by three years last month. Expectations are high within the team as he was called up for pre-season training for the first team last year and this year. It was only a small team when Kim joined the team, but now it has been reborn as a competitive team by combining coach Mitchell's leadership and the team's outstanding player scout. If Kim expands his presence in the team, he can dig into this season's expanded game schedule and seize the opportunity to play in the first team as well. It is not his dream to play in the UCL, not the youth league.
