PSG beat Barcelona 4-2 but lose Khvicha Kvaratskhelia to injury

Summary

Paris Saint-Germain beat Barcelona 4-2 in the Champions League on Tuesday, but the reigning champions lost Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, the best player in last season's tournament, to an injury that will keep him out for some time. He is expected to be out for six months. The same review notes that Rodri's comeback from serious injury, after he came off the bench for Barcelona in the 60th minute, shows that players can take far longer than expected to rediscover their highest level.
