Just five days after the Champions League second leg against Dortmund, PSG's main objective is to recover Neymar for the cause. The brazilian He has been questioned about his fitness in recent games (there has been talk of overweight), and all preceded by the injury he suffered in the ribs against Montpellier on February 1.
In the first leg of the eighth European Cup played in Dortmund, Neymar criticized the management of his injury by Tuchel and the PSG medical staff. The lack of pace with which he came to the appointment was one of the triggers so he could not perform at the highest level, and that marked the only goal of the Parisians. Four days later, he would see the expulsion against Bordeaux, losing another match and unable to recover sensations.
As L'Equipe confirms, Neymar feels disappointed and regrets that he couldn't play more in the last month. Since the injury he suffered in the ribs against Montpellier, he has only been able to play three games, that of Dortmund, 4-3 against Bordeaux (he saw the expulsion), and 1-5 against Lyon, match in which he returned to leave enough doubts, despite the goal he scored as a penalty.
However, from Paris they trust that Neymar reaches 100% of Wednesday's match against Dortmund. One of the keys for Tuchel to move on to the next round will be that of the Brazilian, that in the last two years he had lost the knockout stages due to injury, and that has between eyebrow and eyebrow lift the maximum continental competition in the French capital.
