Donnarumma Horror Injury, Pul Sepatu In The Face

Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma suffered a severe facial injury as his team visited Monaco headquarters in the 16th week of Ligue 1 2024/2025, Thursday, December 19, 2024, early morning WIB.

The Italian goalkeeper's face was hit by a shoe bun (studs) from the home player, Wilfried Singo.

Donnarumma's face immediately suffered bleeding and was seen with serious lacerations in the incident.

The incident began when Singo's shot was blocked by Donnarumma in a one-on-one situation in the 17th minute.

However, the Monaco player tried to jump over Donnarumma who was sliding blocked the ball. Unfortunately, Singo's shoes even hit the goalkeeper's face.

The pictures show that Donnarumma was injured under her right eye. Singo, who has been warned, was lucky not to get a red card.

Donnarumma lay on the pitch while receiving treatment. He finally stood up and walked away to be replaced by Matvei Safonov.

"Gianluigi Donnarumma will return to Paris with the team tonight after suffering facial trauma with several injuries."

"He will undergo a medical examination tomorrow (20 December 2024) and must rest for several days," PSG's official statement read.

Meanwhile, PSG manager Luis Enrique did not criticize referee Francois Letexier after the match for not issuing any cards to Singo.

"The referee's decision? I can't do anything. I can't see the action, but when you see an action like that, it's always difficult."

"The players don't mean to hurt. It's hard to be a match referee like this, I'm not talking about the referee's job," Enrique said in an interview after the game.

PSG ended the match with a 4-2 win at Stade Louis II. An additional three points put Les Parisiens firmly at the top of Ligue 1 standings this season with a collection of 40 points, 10 points ahead of Marseille on the second stairs.

Monaco remain in third place, having the same points as Marseille.

The match between Monaco vs PSG was advanced because there was a schedule conflict with Trophee des Champions (Super France Cup) which also brought the two teams together on January 5, 2025 in Doha.
