Nice parenting from Balotelli while Neymar rallies behind PSG from afar - Ligue 1 goes social

The Italy international and the Brazil forward both followed their teams from afar this past weekend while Kylian Mbappe braved the cold to star

It’s been a hard week for many of Ligue 1’s top stars, who find themselves laid up with injury problems.

Nice striker Mario Balotelli has been on the sidelines for a couple of weeks while Lyon’s ace playmaker Nabil Fekir has also been similarly inactive, though it is the absence of PSG striker Neymar that has been missed most of all.

The capital side were without their leading star when they tackled Real Madrid in the Champions League last 16 on Tuesday last week, leading to their elimination.
