Kim Min-soo, an 18-year-old prospect who is considered the most outstanding player in Spain's Girona 2nd division, scored his UEFA Youth League debut goal and scored an offensive point for two consecutive games.
Girona U19 won 2-0 against Feyenoord U19, which played the second round of the 2024-2025 UEFA Youth League phase at Camp Munisipal Vidrese in Vidrese, Spain on the 2nd (Korea time).
The Youth League is a competition in which matches are played on the same schedule as the European competition. As Girona's first team participated in the UEFA Champions League last season by making a splash in Spain's La Liga, Girona U19 automatically advanced to the Youth League.
Girona's first team had a rough start after losing all two of its matches in the UCL, but the U19 team is different. After defeating Paris Saint-Germain's U19 in the Youth League, it even captured Feyenoord's U19 to secure the win in all two matches. It is one of the seven teams that have won all of their matches so far.
The main player is Kim Min-soo. Kim once had an assist against PSG U19. He then called home Feyenoord U19 and scored a goal.
Kim Min-soo's goal came in the 42nd minute of the second half, when his team was leading. Kim Min-soo, who headed directly toward the long ball kicked by the goalkeeper, reacted quickly when the ball fell without his owner and took it. He then rushed to the Feyenoord U19 gate. Two defenders and the goalkeeper, who ran to block it, rushed in, but rather quickly turned the dribble, causing the two to bump into each other and push the ball.
Kim Min-soo is one of the top prospects Girona is paying attention to. He was recognized this summer as he accompanied him to pre-season training for the first team following last summer. In August, he drew attention with the news that he extended his contract with Girona by three years. 먹튀검증
When Kim first joined the team, Girona was just a small club that moves between the lower Spanish league and the lower tier of the first division. However, the team competed to win the La Liga title last season with excellent scouting and Mitchell's tactics, and secured the berth to the UCL this season by ranking third in the final. Although the team has been sluggish in both the La Liga and the UCL this season due to player withdrawal and UCL combination. Instead, qualification for the UEFA Youth League is serving as a great opportunity for promising players such as Kim Min-soo.
Mitchell has already started to give promising players a chance to play the two games at the same time. If Kim continues to play, he will have an opportunity to make his debut in the first division not only in La Liga, where non-European players' quotas are limited, but also in UCL.
