The battle of the bulge.
PSG started the game well, with Kylian McBarbee and Nima each scoring a goal in 17 minutes to take a 2-0 lead. Lille came back with three goals in a row to overtake the lead before PSG came back in the final period, with Kylian McBarbee scoring three minutes before the end to tie the game at 3-3, and then Mays scored a penalty kick in the top of the goal in five minutes of stoppage time to give PSG a 4-3 win in the final.
Nima had to be carried off the field on a stretcher in the early part of the second half. Initial examination confirmed that he suffered a sprain in his right ankle, but there was no fracture, but he will have to be examined again in the next two days to check for ligament damage, and if ligament injuries are confirmed, he will have to return to the field for the visit to the United States on March 9, and will have to face the same fate.
