Paris Saint-Germain picked up another injury on Wednesday as forward Désiré Doué went off in the second half of their 1-1 draw at lowly Lorient. Doué clutched his right thigh before being removed on a stretcher in the 61st minute with his hands on his face. "It was a bit of a strange injury, I don't know yet what his condition is," PSG coach Luis Enrique said. "I hope it is not a serious one, but we must wait and see."

There were many top-class performances in this week's Champions League matches, but the one Nuno Mendes produced in Paris Saint-Germain's demolition of Bayer in Leverkusen surely stands out. Quite apart from every other aspect of his game, the left-back assisted Willian Pacho for the opening goal, and got on the scoresheet himself.

PSG struck after just six minutes when Barcola slotted the ball past Mike Penders after a neat pass from Desire Doue, but the latter's brother Guela provided the assist for Strasbourg's equaliser as his cross was headed in by Panichelli. Julio Enciso was causing a lot of problems for the hosts, first being denied by Lucas Chevalier and then hitting the side-netting.

Leading through Hakon Arnar Haraldsson's sixth-minute strike at the Stadio Olimpico, manager Bruno Genesio watched Turkiye goalkeeper Berke Ozer save three consecutive penalties as a result of a spot kick awarded to Roma in the 80th minute that was retaken twice. "It's the first time I've seen that," said Genesio, whose side won 1-0. "It's very strong emotions and indescribable joy for the whole group.

European Champions League winners Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) will play their first-ever Intercontinental Cup final in Doha, Qatar, on December 17, FIFA has said. The announcement came on Sunday, even as PSG's opponents will be determined four days earlier in the final playoff, called the Challenger Cup. This will pit Egyptian club Pyramids, the African champions, against the winner of the match between Central American champions Cruz Azul from Mexico and the future winner of the Copa Libertadores.
