Bayern Munich‘s Jamal Musiala suffered a serious injury in his side’s 2-0 Club World Cup quarter-final defeat against European champions Paris Saint-Germain.
Luis Enrique’s side booked their spot in the final four of the competition thanks to goals from Desire Doue and Ousmane Dembele, in what was a incident-ridden affair in Atlanta, Georgia.
The French side were reduced to nine men late on, with Willian Pancho and Lucas Hernandez both sent off in the 82nd and 92nd minute.
Yet, the biggest talking point of the match came when Musiala was involved in a sickening collision with PSG goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma.
The German forward was chasing a forward ball when they had a coming together, which resulted in a horror lower leg injury.
Footage of the incident showed the Bayern star’s ankle get trapped in between the Italian shot-stopper’s body and arms as he went for the ball.

The momentum of both players then carried them in opposite directions, with the forward’s ankle bearing the brunt of the collision, twisting at a sickening angle as a result.
It was a freak accident, with Donnarumma left in clear discomfort after realising what had happened.
The PSG goalkeeper dropped to his knees and was left in tears with his head in his hands as Bayern players swarmed to their team-mate’s assistance.
Harry Kane, Michael Olise, Kingsley Coman and Joshua Kimmich could hardly look and then turned away in agony.
Bayern and PSG players were quick to console Donnarumma, reassuring him that he need not feel guilty over the incident.
Musiala was quickly attended to by medics who treated the incident on the field and soon had him on a stretcher to be taken off the pitch.
He was then pictured on the stretcher making for an ambulance which was waiting at the stadium.
The incident was so unsettling that DAZN’s TV broadcast cut away from the scene to spare fans the horror of witnessing it.

A statement from Bayern read: ‘Jamal Musiala has to be carried off the field injured. We’re with you, Jamal!’
Fans on social media extended their sympathies towards the 22-year-old midfielder.
One wrote on X: ‘Absolutely horrific injury. Can’t even blame Donnarumma, it’s just a freak injury. Speedy recovery to Jamal.’
Another commented: ‘Awful, awful injury. I wish Musiala a speedy recovery.’
A third wrote: ‘No player deserves such reality. Damn!! Really unfortunate.’
It is believed that Musiala’s injury is in his lower leg, which often involves an issue in the ankle, calf, Achilles tendon or tibia and fibula fractures.
The timeline for his injury is, of course, currently unknown. However, a full leg break can take anywhere from six to 12 months or more to recover from.
