Donnarumma trolled as he ‘tries to be the Italian Neuer’ but concedes after horror blunder in AC Milan’s win vs Udinese


AC MILAN keeper Gianluigi Donnarumma conceded a howler of a goal after having a major rush of blood to the head.

The game was tied at 0-0 against Udinese when Donnarumma decided to put his stamp on proceedings.

But it was to the detriment of his team.

The 20-year-old sprinted from his line despite having plenty of defenders nearby by and crashed into Kevin Lasagna.

The ball spun out to Jens Stryger Larsen and curled home a beautiful effort from the corner of the box.

Donnarumma was labelled the “Italian Manuel Neuer” by some on Twitter – a reference to the German stopper who loves to play sweeper-keeper.

One football fan wrote that he was “a very stupid boy” while another asked “why did he need to come out?”

BAILED OUT BY REBIC

Brad Kelly posted: “What on earth is he doing”, while many other scoffed that he is “Italy’s No1 keeper”.

Donnarumma was indebted to team-mate Ante Rebic.

Forward Rebic broke his AC Milan duck by scoring two second-half goals including a stoppage-time winner to give them a thrilling 3-2 win over Udinese in Serie A.

After gifting Udinese an early goal with a mistake by Donnarumma, Milan turned the game around with goals by Rebic and Theo Hernandez.

They were stunned by an 85th-minute equaliser from Kevin Lasagna before snatching three points at the death.

The win lifted them to eighth in Serie A and they have not lost in four games in all competitions since 38-year-old striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic returned for a second stint at club at the start of the month.

Coach coach Stefano Pioli said after the game: “Ibra’s arrival has given us that something extra.

“We are playing with more conviction. We know we can score and win matches.”
