To have killed us. If Antonio Resines used it to title a book that remembered his life, Gianluigi Donnarumma has to come up with something to explain the innings he suffered this Wednesday. It was an ‘unintentional’ attack by Wilfred Singo, Monaco defender. They faced PSG, leaders of the French league in which those from the principality are third. It was a take-no-prisoners game and it became clear in the 20th minute.
The Ivorian player, very overworked from the beginning, went all out in a counterattack that could help them gain an advantage. The situation looked better when Singo launched the sprint. But the pass was going long, Donnarumma, PSG’s goalkeeper, went well and there was no choice but to jump over it and defend again.
Singo already had a yellow one. I wasn’t going to find anything good there. However, he measured poorly, failed to avoid the Italian goalkeeper and the studs of his right foot ended up in the opponent’s face. The scene is chilling. So unimaginable that the referee didn’t whistle anything. He did not expel the African. He didn’t point out a foul. Nor did the VAR see it necessary to intervene. The referee asked those responsible for video refereeing for help, but nothing.
Those who did get to work were the medical services. Donnarumma was replaced, there is nothing serious about him, other than some staples and a very ugly cut on his face. The game, if it matters, was won by Luis Enrique’s team 4-2
