Donnarumma was the first to see what had happened up close and was visibly traumatised by the scene, aware immediately of just how serious this was.

Bayern Munich and Paris Saint-Germain players consoled Donnarumma, reassuring him that this was not in any way his fault, as Musiala received treatment.

The goalkeeper left the field in tears at half-time, while Musiala was stretchered off.

The 22-year-old talent spent time in the Southampton and Chelsea youth academies before moving to Bayern Munich in 2020.

He already has 40 senior caps for Germany, scoring eight goals, and only recently signed a new contract to June 2030.

As for Donnarumma, he already experienced an unlucky injury of his own in December, an accidental clash leaving him with a large scar on his cheek.
