Ligue 1: Ethan Mbappe limps out of Lille’s night in Nice

A problem felt on the restart

Ethan Mbappe did not finish LOSC’s trip to Nice on Sunday. Coming back out after the break, the Lille midfielder felt a problem after a missed shot just outside the box. Unable to carry on, he was replaced by Dilane Bakwa.

No further details were available straight away on the exact nature of the injury or how long he may be out. The substitution, though, made it clear this was not a tactical change.

The U21 call-up now in doubt

The timing could hardly be worse. The player had only just been called into the France U21 squad. His place at the next camp now looks uncertain, with Lille yet to know how long they will be without him.

For LOSC, it was a rough night all round. Nice won thanks to an Amoura goal, ending almost a year without a home victory against the Dogues. To lose the match and a midfielder on France U21 duty in the same game, well, that is the sort of Sunday a club is happy to avoid before an international break.
