Prior to Lionel Messi’s game-winning goal in the 95th minute to give Paris St. Germain an amazing victory over Lille, Neymar was taken out on a stretcher.
Prior to Lille’s Bafode Diakite, Jonathan David, and Jonathan Bamba goals, PSG held a 2-0 lead but trailed 3-2.
In the 87th minute, Kylian Mbappe, who had already scored once, added his second goal to give PSG a chance to win.
The match was then dramatically won by Messi with a 22-yard free kick.
Neymar, a Brazilian forward who scored in the first half and was kicked in the calf before falling awkwardly on his right ankle five minutes into the second half, will be PSG’s biggest concern despite the victory.
He looked in great pain with his hands over his face as he was carried off at the Parc des Princes.
PSG announce that Neymar suffers from a sprained ankle — the MRI performed today does not reveal a fracture. “New ligament assessment will be carried out in 48 hours”, club confirms.
