Donnarumma: PSG will become stronger, let's start again together
Gianluigi Donnarumma, the goalkeeper for Paris Saint-Germain, believes the team should not linger on their Champions League defeat.
Paris Saint-Germain will heal from the "severe blow" of exiting the
Champions League, according to Gianluigi Donnarumma, as they focus on winning Ligue 1.
PSG surrendered a two-goal lead in the second leg of their round-of-16 encounter against Real Madrid on Wednesday, losing 3-2 on aggregate at the Santiago Bernabeu.
The first of Karim Benzema's three goals came due to a blunder by Italy goalie Donnarumma, an error that started an astonishing Madrid comeback.
The former AC Milan player has urged the
Ligue 1leaders to refocus before their match against Bordeaux on Sunday.
He tweeted:
"The elimination from the Champions League was a hard blow.
"The last two days have not been easy, but we come out stronger from these moments of difficulty.
"Now we have to think about the present, about winning Ligue 1, giving everything as I have always done for this shirt, for this club and for our fans. Let's start again together! Allez Paris."
"Errors from goalkeepers are normal," Buffon addressed the Corriere dello Sport, addressing Donnarumma's doubters. Gigi still has a lot to provide to PSG. A season's worth of blunders is psychological.
"He made an unpopular choice joining PSG, but it must be respected. He wanted to fuel his ambition, something many didn't like.
"They're the people who were waiting for this mistake. The problem is not the French who are enjoying it, but the Italians who were waiting for that."
