Despite good overall performances in recent weeks, Paris Saint-Germain goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma (24 years old, 35 appearances in all competitions this season) has also made a few mistakes against Bayern Munich (0-1) in the League of Champions or FC Nantes (4-2) in Ligue 1. At a press conference on Tuesday, Parisian coach Christophe Galtier defended the Italian international.
« He’s a reliable, very high-level, young goalkeeper… We can refer to that first goal against Nantes. But once it’s happened, it shouldn’t happen to him again. It’s also the experience. However, he is a decisive figure in important moments. I consider him to be a high-level goalkeeper, » assured the Ile-de-France coach.
On Wednesday, during the round of 16 second leg of C1 on Bayern’s lawn, Donnarumma will be expected at the turn.
