PSG's Donnarumma Suffers Facial Trauma in Monaco Clash

Monaco's Wilfried Singo apologizes for the unintentional injury that left Gianluigi Donnarumma sidelined, while the referee's decision not to issue a red card draws criticism.

  • Gianluigi Donnarumma sustained a severe facial injury after being struck by Wilfried Singo's cleats during PSG's 4-2 victory over Monaco in Ligue 1 on December 18.
  • The Italian goalkeeper required 10 staples for multiple facial wounds and will remain inactive for several days, missing PSG's upcoming match against Lens in the Coupe de France.
  • Singo, already on a yellow card, avoided further disciplinary action during the match, a decision later criticized by observers and acknowledged as an error by Ligue 1's referee adviser Mickaël Landreau.
  • Monaco condemned the racist abuse directed at Singo on social media following the incident, emphasizing that such behavior has no place in sports.
  • Despite the injury, Donnarumma publicly reassured fans of his recovery, while Singo issued an apology, stating the act was unintentional and wishing the goalkeeper a full recovery.
