Three penalties conceded by Olympique de Marseille since the start of the season? No problem, Geronimo Rulli takes care of it. Just yesterday, the goalkeeper of the Marseille city club was excellent in this exercise by stopping that of Arnaud Kalimuendo for the first failure of his young career. In addition, the Argentinian international became the very first goalkeeper to save his first three penalties with OM in Ligue1 over the last 30 years. An XXL performance which does not surprise his partner, Neal Maupay, who took the opportunity to make a magnificent declaration of love to the former Ajax Amsterdam goalkeeper.
“For me, he’s the best goalkeeper in Ligue 1, by far”
The love story between Geronimo Rulli and Olympique de Marseille could not have started better.

For me, he’s the best goalkeeper in L1, by far, and he demonstrated it again this evening. With his feet, he’s exceptional , in one-on-ones, he stops everything.
