Trent Alexander-Arnold's maiden UCL appearance for Real Madrid concluded prematurely as he sustained an injury only three minutes into the match against the French side
Alexander-Arnold, who joined Los Blancos from Liverpool following last campaign, was picked to begin at full-back ahead of Dani Carvajal
Yet, Alexander-Arnold experienced discomfort with what appeared to be a hamstring injury while running for the ball
The defender immediately dropped and signaled to the bench before being replaced by the substitute in the fifth minute
Depending on the extent of the injury, the Three Lions defender could be unavailable for a trip to Liverpool's stadium, with the Spanish side set to play the Reds in the UCL on early November
This represented a further disappointment for the defender, who had featured in only two of Los Blancos' initial Spanish league fixtures this term and was excluded from the international side for September's qualifying qualifiers
