Hard blow for Paris Saint-Germain. For the 24th day of Ligue 1 and last rehearsal before the return match against Real Sociedad, in the Champions League, PSG is currently traveling to AS Monaco. Starting at kick-off, Marco Asensio was hit in the thigh after a little over half an hour of play. An injury which forced him to leave his partners.

The 28-year-old striker tried to continue playing, but was forced out after too much pain. A worrying injury for Luis Enrique and his partners, four days before the clash at Real Sociedad, in San Sebastian. After 38 minutes of play, Bradley Barcola replaced him for the rest of the match.
