Lionel Messi was on target for Barcelona on Sunday in their 1-0 win over struggling Levante to lift the Catalan club up to eighth.
La Liga leaders Real Sociedad - who face Barca on Wednesday - were held at home by Eibar and now only lead Atletico Madrid on goal difference.
The Brazilian was fouled by Thiago Mendes in injury time, and while the Lyon midfielder was shown a red card, Neymar had to be carried off on a stretcher.
Earlier, Tino Kadewere had struck for the second-placed visitors and the result drops PSG to third, a point behind leaders Lille, who beate Bordeaux 2-1 thanks to a Jose Fonte winner.
In Italy, Theo Hernandez rescued a point for early pace setters AC Milan at home to Parma, scoring the second of his two goals in stoppage time to grab a 2-2 draw.
Cristiano Ronaldo was also at the double, converting two penalties in a 3-1 win for Juventus at Genoa, which also saw Paulo Dybala on the scoresheet.
Juve remain fourth in Serie A, level on points with Napoli, who beat Sampdoria, and a point behind Inter Milan, after Romelu Lukaku sealed their 3-1 win at Cagliari to cut Milan's advantage to three points.
Bayer Leverkusen remain top of the Bundesliga and a point ahead of Bayern Munich after thrashing nine-man Hoffenheim 4-1, while a 93rd-minute equaliser for 10-man Augsburg kept Schalke rooted to the bottom of the table.
