He is certainly not the only one responsible for PSG's defeat against Atletico Madrid (1-2) this Wednesday evening, but he did nothing to avoid it. Parisian goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma was the target of criticism from the Spanish press the day after the 4th day of the Champions League.
Special mention to AS who points out his involvement in Ángel Correa's winning goal in the last minute of the match on a counter-attack. “Donnarumma is a disaster. His level of play is worrying,” explains the Spanish daily which still remembers its blunder against Real Madrid in the round of 16 of the 2022 season.
“Since his mistake against Benzema in the round of 16 of the 2022 Champions League, he has become a dwarf in the European Cup,” concludes AS. El Pais prefers to target Vitinha who “perhaps sinned” by looking too hard for Dembélé who “wanted to score goals like Maradona”.
The Spanish media still agree that Atletico's victory on PSG grounds remains a small “miracle”. “God was with Atléti,” even wrote the AS newspaper. “Atlético has come back to life,” says Marca. “We didn't have many chances but we managed to make it happen. Precision breeds success. Paris was better than us but we had this success,” Diego Simeone, the Colchoneros technician, preferred to concede at the end of the match. Rather, a real lesson in efficiency.
