His exit from injury in the 35th minute was not good news for Losc.
Unsurprisingly, the verdict fell on Monday for Jonathan David, the Lille striker.
After Idrissa Gueye's tackle in the 19th minute, who for the occasion had been warned of a yellow card by referee Mr. Benoît Bastien, the Lille resident was hit in the right ankle.
A rather heavy verdict since it is a lateral ligament rupture.
The Canadian player will certainly not be able to play again for several weeks as the club indicates on social networks.
🔴 Saturday, @itsJoDavid had to be replaced in the 35th minute of #PSGLOSC, after suffering a tackle from a Parisian player.
Following the examinations carried out, Jonathan David suffers from a lateral ligament rupture of the right ankle.
He will be unavailable for several weeks.

From there to imagine that he can return before the end of the season?
This seems unlikely when there are only seven days left to go for an end of the season scheduled for May 23 with a final trip to Angers.
Author of exploits on the ground, the Canadian hopes to achieve another behind the scenes to help his team win the title of champion of France, in the face and beard of the Parisians.
"We do not understand why there is no intervention of the VAR"
Christophe Galtier, the coach of Losc, thus loses an important element in the title race when his team had just struck a big blow by winning at the Parc des Princes against PSG (0-1) this Saturday.
The three-point lead in the standings for Lille will not be too much without its star striker.
Author of 10 goals since the start of the season in Ligue 1, the Canadian international, who had been recruited 32 million euros during the offseason, scored the winning goal for Lille in the duel at the top on Saturday before going out on injury.
An injury which is obviously not to the liking of the Lille president, Olivier Letang, who was quick to speak on Monday on the RMC antenna.
“It's something that is difficult to live with.
Quite frankly, we do not understand why there is no intervention by the VAR ", declared the former leader of the PSG in the program" Top of the foot ".
