Pointed after the first leg to the Parc des Princes (0-1),
Gianluigi Donnarumma replied in the most beautiful way by playing a major role in the qualification of Paris Saint-Germain against Liverpool, Tuesday evening, in Anfield, during a magical night.
The Italian international had already been decisive by maintaining his invited cage in a very high intensity match where the waves of the Reds multiplied, but he was even stronger by diverting two shots to the goal to send the PSG in the quarterfinals of the Champions League.
Donnarumma, a distinction before extension?
This performance has not gone unnoticed on the level of European football. Gianluigi Donnarumma was indeed acclaimed by UEFA, who elected him best goalkeeper of the week in the Champions League. The PSG porter appears in this week's standard team.
It remains to be seen whether this “masterclass” will find its extension in what remains the most important for the Italian international: its situation in Paris Saint-Germain. While several team executives have extended their contract recently (Vitinha, Hakimi, Nuno Mendes in particular), the last bulwark of PSG remains pending. This match is likely to tip the scales on the right side.
