PARIS, France (AFP) — Paris Saint-Germain forward Neymar suffered a sprained ankle and a fractured metatarsal when he was stretchered off against Marseille on Sunday, the Ligue 1 leaders announced on Monday.

The Brazilian, who signed in a world-record move from Barcelona last year, now faces a fight to be fit for the Champions League last-16 second leg against Real Madrid at the Parc des Princes on March 6.
