PSG holds its breath for Kylian Mbappé

Dirty evening for PSG and Kylian Mbappé. Admittedly, the club from the capital returned to victory during its trip to Montpellier (3-1), and showed much more intensity than during its last outings, but above all it lost its vice-world champion on wound. From the 21st minute, the striker came out, hit behind the knee and in the thigh, replaced by Hugo Ekitike. This followed a clash with MHSC midfielder Leo Leroy.

Mbappé tried to continue but the pain was too strong. “It was on a support that I injured myself. Oh I’m in so much pain” complained the star in images captured by the cameras of Canal Plus at the time of his injury. The start of the game had already been animated because he had had time to see Benjamin Lecomte push back his two penalties (8th and 10th), the first having been given to withdraw by Mr. Pignard. On the second attempt, the striker failed to frame the ball which had returned to him.

Bayern show up in 12 days

“He took a blow behind the knee and on the muscle. Is it a contusion or a hematoma, we don’t know yettemporized Galtier in front of the press last night. But with the sequence of matches, they don’t want to take any risks since we have a very busy schedule. It doesn’t seem like a big deal to either of them. We’ll see. They are (Mbappé and Ramos) very important. On what we saw at half-time and what we said to each other after the match, there is not too much concern. But, as we play every three days…”

That’s the problem. The injuries of his number 7 and Sergio Ramos, injured in the adductor, in addition to having been caught in a shock with Kouyaté, come at the worst of times. PSG face an insane schedule, while Bayern Munich present themselves in 12 days from now for the round of 16 first leg of the Champions League. Before that, we will probably have to do without Mbappé against Toulouse at home, OM in the Coupe de France and Monaco at Louis II. Suffice to say that with a Neymar whose ankle creaks, PSG can fear the worst as he plays his season.
