The Champions League semi-final thriller between PSG and Bayern took a dramatic turn for the hosts.
Details: Paris Saint-Germain’s key defender Achraf Hakimi suffered a hamstring injury, but despite visible pain, was forced to stay on the pitch until the final whistle.
The incident happened in the 88th minute: Hakimi collapsed on the pitch, clutching his leg, immediately raising concerns among the medical staff and fans. However, PSG’s coaching staff had already used all available substitutions in this wild match.
Given the critical scoreline and Bayern's relentless pressure, Hakimi had to show real heroism, pushing through the pain to help his team hold onto the victory.
Most likely, he will have to undergo medical tests after the match, as it was clear he was in significant pain and discomfort.
Reminder: PSG conceded 4 goals at the Parc des Princes for the first time in 20 years.
