Geronimo Rulli produced the perfect match against the Breton club as part of the 17th day of Ligue 1. The Argentine goalkeeper notably stopped Arnaud Kalimuendo’s penalty in the first period.
After the meeting, his partners did not hesitate to compliment and encourage him. For Olympian striker Neal Maupay, Geronimo Rulli is quite simply the best goalkeeper in the French championship.
“ He trains a lot, he stops a lot (in training). For me, he is the best goalkeeper in L1, by far, and he demonstrated it again this evening. With his feet, he is exceptional, in one-on-one situations, he stops everything. He saved another penalty. Having him with us gives us peace of mind. When I’m against him in training, you know that to score, you have to apply yourself. Always well placed, nice stop. Very happy to have him with us,” he said in the mixed zone in front of journalists.
Confirm against Lille OSC
With confidence, Geronimo Rulli will have to confirm his good performance this Tuesday in the Coupe de France against Lille OSC in the round of 16 of the competition. The Argentine goalkeeper could prove valuable in the event of a penalty shootout in this clash of the titans.
