Introduction

Paris St-Germain says two players, Achraf Hakimi and Lucas Chevalier, cannot play. They both have leg injuries.

Main Body

Achraf Hakimi hurt his leg in a game against Bayern Munich. His team won 5-4. He stayed in the game because the team had no more changes. Now, Hakimi must rest for many weeks. He cannot play in the next big game on May 6. Lucas Chevalier is the goalkeeper. He hurt his leg on Wednesday during practice. The team now has fewer players.

Conclusion

Paris St-Germain will play against Lorient and Bayern Munich without Hakimi and Chevalier.

🛑 The Power of "CANNOT"

In this story, the word cannot (can + not) is used to show that something is impossible. For A2 learners, this is the simplest way to talk about rules or physical limits.

How it works: Person → cannot → Action

Examples from the text:

  • Players → cannot → play
  • Hakimi → cannot → play in the next game

📅 Time Words (When did it happen?)

Notice how the text tells us when things occur. This helps a beginner organize a story:

  1. Specific Days: "On Wednesday"
  2. Specific Dates: "On May 6"
  3. General Time: "For many weeks"

Quick Tip: Always use "on" before a day or a date!
