Wilfried Singo and Donnarumma, 25, went for the ball inside PSG's area and the defender accidentally stepped on his opponent's face - studs first - with his right foot.

The Italy international was left bleeding with an awful wound on his face.

Singo, 23, was already on a yellow after a rough challenge on Desire Doue.
