Neymar stretchered off in tears with ankle injury; faces race to play in Champions League tie

Neymar was stretchered off with an ankle injury midway through Paris Saint-Germain's clash with Lille in Ligue 1 on Sunday.

The Brazil international scored PSG's second goal in the dramatic 4-3 comeback victory over Lille but landed awkwardly on his ankle following contact with Lille's Benjamin Andre on 51 minutes at the Parc des Princes before receiving lengthy treatment. Neymar damaged the same ankle at the World Cup in Qatar.
