A Newcastle United member does not understand the criticism of Parisian goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma.

PSG negotiated poorly in their second Champions League match, which was played on Wednesday evening in Newcastle. The French champions even delivered one of their worst performances in C1 of the QSI era, with a 1-4 defeat.

“Donnarumma showed that he is strong”

Having conceded four goals, Gianluigi Donnarumma did not escape criticism. The last Italian rampart continues to blow hot and cold with the Parisian tunic and its rating among observers is inevitably impacted.

“Gigi” is in the eye of the storm and that surprises some of his opponents. Sandro Tonali, Newcastle United midfielder, stepped up to defend his compatriot.

“We spoke to each other, he made two miraculous saves in the first half, but then we scored two goals, he told Sky Italia. We really wanted to send this ball to the bottom. Gigi and I spoke before and after the match. He is a friend and we have played many matches together. I still play with him in the national team. Even today he showed that he was strong.”

Strong words that comfort Donnarumma. The former rossonerro is not going through the best period of his career. Since the start of the season, he has already had to fetch the ball in his net 10 times (in 9 matches).
