Paris Saint-Germain
are in rough shape heading into their Champions League clash with
Chelsea after suffering four injuries and a last-gasp collapse to draw
2-2 with Caen in Ligue 1.
First-half
goals from Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Ezequiel Lavezzi at the Parc des
Princes looked to have put PSG on course for a victory which would have
put them back on top of the league for the first time since December.
But
injuries to Yohan Cabaye, Marquinhos, Serge Aurier and Lucas Moura left
the champions to finish the game with nine men, and they wilted in the
face of visiting pressure.
Emiliano Sala reduced the arrears with
two minutes to play before a stoppage-time free kick from Herve Bazile
beat Salvatore Sirigu and snatched a point.
PSG remain a point off Lyon, who can extend their advantage at Lorient on Sunday.
Blanc
may be forced to shuffle his pack when runaway Premier League leaders
Chelsea visit the French capital on Tuesday while his players will be in
desperate need of a psychological lift.
