Dembélé and Olmo Forced Off Early in PSG-Barcelona Clash

Paris Saint-Germain winger Ousmane Dembélé left the Champions League match against Barcelona in the 19th minute after pulling up with an apparent hamstring or thigh injury during a run, prompting concern for the reigning champions. Barcelona also made an early change when Dani Olmo went off injured, with Fermín López replacing him. Dembélé was replaced by Ferran Torres, who missed an early chance, while PSG had started brightly and took the lead through Désiré Doué in the 38th minute. The injuries were a setback for both sides in a high-profile clash between teams that had each won their first two league-phase matches.
