PSG wins, Yvon Mvogo fails and fears for World Cup participation with Switzerland

Paris still undefeated

Paris Saint-Germain have maintained their five-point lead at the top of France’s Ligue 1 and remain unbeaten. The defending champion won the game at FC Lorient on Sunday 2-1 (1-0). Argentina star player Lionel Messi was out with an inflamed Achilles tendon.

PSG got the lead in the ninth minute through Neymar, who capitalized on a mistake by keeper Yvon Mvogo. The ex-Leipziger also twisted his ankle during the action and had to be replaced in tears. After Terem Moffi (53′) equalized shortly after half-time, Danilo Pereira (81′) scored in the closing stages to win.

For Switzerland, concerns are growing in goal shortly before the World Cup in Qatar (opening game: November 20). Before Mvogo, number one Yann Sommer (Gladbach; ankle injury) and substitute Jonas Omlin (Montpellier HSC; sprained ankle) recently suffered injuries. So far, the duo has not been able to return to the pitch.
