Scores opener against Bochum Lee scored a goal off his lone shot during Saturday's 5-2 win over Bochum.

Impact Lee had already put to an end a six-game scoring drought and now he finds himself scoring in back-to-back matches. The forward didn't need a full minute into the game to make an impact, appearing at the right place to slot home a cross from the left and making it 1-0 for Mainz. This was the fourth goal of the season for Lee, who will try to extend his streak during next Saturday's visit to Union Berlin.

Ends scoring drought Lee Jae-Sung scored one goal to go with one shot (one on target) in Wednesday's 2-1 loss to Borussia Dortmund. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 34th minute.

Impact Jae-Sung finally ended his six-match scoreless streak with an early goal within the first two minutes of the contest on Wednesday. What he has struggled with this campaign is getting involved in the game, only totaling 15 shots (five on target), 21 tackles (nine won) and 11 crosses (three accurate) in 18 appearances thus far.

Two starts in group stage Jae-Sung started two of South Korea's group stage matches at the World Cup, first in attacking midfield in the opener against Uruguay and then on the right wing in the finale again...

Impact Jae-Sung hasn't been particularly effective in either of his appearances, and with Hwang Hee-Chan returning from injury it's possible he gets benched for Monday's Round of 16 clash against Brazil.

Three goals contributions early Lee scored twice and provided one assist in 15 appearances (10 starts) in the Bundesliga.

Impact Lee's role remains the same as it was during the 2021/22 campaign. Largely a rotational role, but an option behind Karim Onisiwo in nearly every match, and with the chance to start with any injury or change of formation. Lee has actually seen an uptick in playing time, even if his production hasn't quite lived up to what he showed in the 2021/22 Bundesliga.

Impact Lee had one of his best performances of the campaign so far, having the same number of shots attempted he had on his previous nine appearances combined and stepping into the box to score his side's second goal in the 66th minute. This was the second goal of the season for the attacker, who's having an increased role on this Mainz squad, being a starter in three of the last four matches.

Single shot in draw Lee Jae-Sung had one shot (one on goal), four crosses (one accurate), and one chance created in Saturday's 1-1 draw to RB Leipzig.

Impact Lee shot just once during Saturday's draw as he continues to scuffle offensively. The forward was hoping to continue his breakout after putting together seven goal contributions in 2021/22, but has struggled throughout. While this isn't the most positive fantasy environment possible it is one that should give Lee to bounce back to similar production as he has shown previously.

Four goals in minor role Jae-Sung scored four goals and provided three assists during 27 appearances (19 starts) in the Bundesliga.

Impact Jae-Sung ended up with seven goal contributions but fell entirely out of the starting XI in the final months of the season. The forward was a contributor early on, but with all the attackers ahead of him fit, he became something of a late super sub, coming on for small cameos. Unless his role turns around, it's hard to project a big season for Jae-Sung, who was held scoreless for the final month of the season.

Assists Sunday Sung provided one assist on two chances created during Sunday's 1-1 draw with Gladbach.

Impact Sung earned an assist during Sunday's match, and was in good form throughout the draw. The forward came off the bench for only 21 minutes, but looked like a complete game-changer when on the pitch. Sung will likely return to the starting XI for Wednesday's clash with Augsburg.
