WATCH: Real Madrid keep tabs as Neymar injury has PSG worried

Real Madrid are keeping close tabs on Neymar's injury setback at PSG.

AS says Neymar could now miss the second-leg of their round of 16 Champions League tie with Real. Real will go to Paris defending a 3-1 lead.

PSG coach Unai Emery confirmed at a press conference that Neymar suffered a sprained ankle, but was optimistic about his presence against Real Madrid.

"It seems a twist, we have to wait for medical exams, he is calm, we must be patient. If I had to say today if he would play or not, I prefer to say yes," said Emery.
