Gianluigi Donnarumma sends heartfelt message to Jamal Musiala after being left shaken by clash that saw Bayern star stretchered off

As Musiala raced to the byline, he found himself sandwiched between PSG defender Willian Pacho and the onrushing Donnarumma. In an attempt to secure the ball, the Italian goalkeeper launched himself forward, but in the process, Musiala’s leg was caught awkwardly underneath Donnarumma’s body.

As Musiala hit the ground, his foot appeared to be unnaturally twisted at the ankle, a sight that left the players terrified. Medical personnel rushed to the scene while Bayern players stood frozen in disbelief.

Perhaps no one was more emotionally affected than Donnarumma himself. The 26-year-old goalkeeper appeared devastated by the accidental nature of the collision. Cameras captured him on one knee with tears streaming down his face, his gloves covering his expression as team staff tried to console him on the sidelines.

Shortly after the match, Donnarumma took to Instagram to extend his heartfelt support.

"All my prayers and well wishes are with you @jamalmusiala10 🙏🏽," he wrote.

While PSG ultimately claimed a place in the semifinals with a gritty performance, the match result seemed like a footnote to the seemingly awful injury to Musiala that followed. They will next face the winner of Real Madrid and Borussia Dortmund in the last four on July 9. On the other side of the bracket, Brazilian outfit Fluminense is set to meet Chelsea a day earlier.
