By relegating Gianluigi Donnarumma to the bench against Bayern Munich, Luis Enrique made a strong choice. But the PSG coach probably lost the Italian goalkeeper.
It was in the spirit of the times, and it was confirmed on Tuesday evening, the Paris Saint-Germain coach chose to make Matvey Safonov his number 1 in the Champions League against Munich. A necessarily spectacular decision, since at the same time, it is Gigio Donnarumma, holder for ages, who joined the sidelines. For the Italian international goalkeeper, the blow is inevitably very hard at a time when we no longer really hear about his contract extension with PSG.
Luis Enrique justified this decision by the technical qualities that the Russian goalkeeper would have in terms of recovery. But we saw it during 90 minutes, Safonov has nothing more than Donnarumma in this sector, and his responsibility in the Bayern Munich goal is total. For Daniel Riolo, with this decision, Luis Enrique will completely lose Gianluigi Donnarumma, which is not good for either Paris Saint-Germain or the winner of Euro 2021.
Donnarumma in danger at PSG
The RMC journalist has no doubt about the brutal impact of this tactical decision taken at the expense of the Italian goalkeeper. “ The saves he makes, Donnarumma also makes them every day. The problem isn't the blunder, it's why embarrass yourself in this game with the goalkeepers? 'I put you on, I put you on'. Now he has lost Donnarumma. It's over, he won't see it anymore. But why did you need to do that? It's not like you brought in Sepp Maier or Lev Yashin. You brought in Safonov, the former Krasnodar goalkeeper! Do you want to talk about the goal conceded? He was ridiculous », points out Daniel Riolo.
