❌ The MRI performed this afternoon ruled out a fracture, although the tests will be repeated in 48 hours.
Neymar had to leave the match against Lille in the early minutes of the second half of the game played at Parc des Princes. The Brazilian was taken off the field in pain and on a stretcher. In twenty days, Paris Saint-Germain will visit Bayern Munich in the second leg of the Champions League round of 16.
Neymar was injured after a tackle by Benjamin Andre. The Lille midfielder kicked Neymar's calf, and in the fall, he twisted his right ankle. He was then replaced by Hugo Ekitike and left the match amidst applause from the crowd.
Neymar was still trying to walk and wanted to play even after the nasty injury :(
