“We must not fantasize”: Riolo already calms the Blues

For his first tenure as number 1 with the France team, Mike Maignan particularly distinguished himself. If he was not greatly endangered during the meeting against the Netherlands this Friday (4-0 victory for the Blues), the AC Milan goalkeeper was reassuring. The latter still stopped a penalty in the last moments of the meeting, not enough to ignite however, according to Daniel Riolo.

Because we had to end this evening in style, Mike Maignan diverted the penalty from Memphis Depay at the very end of the match against The Netherlands Friday night. successor toHugo Lloris as the titular goalkeeper of the France team, the goalkeeper trained in PSG and revealed to LOSC confirmed, and above all reinforced all the hopes placed in him.

“It does not exist” warns Riolo on Maignan

But in the show After Football, Daniel Riolohe did not want to ignite on this penalty stopped by the French goalkeeper. “The penalty? We must not fantasize about Maignan either. We know that he is a very good goalkeeper and he has the particularity of being good on penalties, but there is no goalkeeper who stops all penalties. I like Maignan, but Memphis shoots badly”.

Mike Maignan, an exercise specialist

What is certain, however, is that the Milan goalkeeper (voted best goalkeeper in Serie A in 2022), is one of the best in his position in the exercise of penalties. A definite improvement in this area for the Blues, especially compared to its predecessor Hugo Lloris.
