Bayern Munich midfielder Jamal Musiala suffered a seemingly major ankle injury during a FIFA Club World Cup quarterfinal between the German side and Paris Saint-Germain at Mercedes-Benz Stadium.
Musiala required significant treatment in the final seconds of the first half of Saturday's game after an awkward collision between him and Paris Saint-Germain goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma caused what looked on replay like a potentially severe injury.

Donnarumma, upon seeing the nature of the injury, was one of several players to look distraught on the field, with referee Anthony Taylor calling the first half to a close as team trainers attended to Musiala. Serge Gnabry was brought on to replace Musiala during the halftime break.
The 22-year-old, a major player for Bayern and the German national team, is among the world's premier attacking midfielders, and the Bundesliga powerhouse does not have a straightforward option to replace him.
