A little scare for PSG fans. Vitinha was injured during the closing match of the 30th day of Ligue 1 against OL, this Sunday at the Parc des Princes. After an aerial duel with Endrick near the center circle, on the action of the second Lyon goal scored by Afonso Moreira, the Parisian playmaker landed badly on his right ankle. He grimaced in pain immediately.
After a first exchange with Luis Enrique and his staff on the bench, the Portuguese international resumed his place and continued to play for long minutes. But he eventually decided to leave the field shortly before halftime, apparently limited in his movements. The former Porto player was replaced in the 39th minute by Warren Zaïre-Emery, before heading to the stadium’s locker rooms.
Le PSG will monitor his injury
Passing through the tunnel, Vitinha showed his right ankle to the members of the Parisian staff accompanying him. The capital club will obviously closely monitor the evolution of this injury nine days before the first leg of the Champions League semi-final against Bayern Munich, scheduled for April 28 at the Parc des Princes, before the return leg on May 6 in Bavaria. Hoping that it is not too serious for their conductor, who has become over the seasons the central element of Luis Enrique’s system.
