Knockout qualification
Johansen was injured in the 1-1 draw in Italy which secured a knockout-round place for the Group E leaders, who are also bottom of France's Ligue 1. The 26-year-old is now doubtful for Strasbourg's final group match against FK Crvena Zvezda on 14 December.
Muscle tear
"Scans carried out yesterday showed a torn muscle in his thigh," said club doctor François Pietra. Strasbourg have played three games in their section, winning against FC Basel 1893 and Tromsø IL before taking a point from Roma.
