Donaluma conquered Manchester City fans in his Premier League debut, Haaland: I m willing to give him the best trophy
4:59pm, 17 September 2025【Football】
The fourth round of the Premier League ushered in the highly anticipated Manchester derby. The battle at the Etihad stadium was escalated, and Manchester City finally defeated their city rival Manchester United with an absolute advantage of 3:0, winning three consecutive league wins. However, the most eye-catching thing after the game was not Haaland, who scored twice, nor Foden, who scored and made a successful goal, but the Blue Moon's new patron saint, Donnarumma.

The Italian goalkeeper who transferred from Paris Saint-Germain in the summer made a stunning debut for Manchester City. In the whole game, he took high and low blocks, resolved dangers many times, and tried hard to ensure that the goal was not lost, becoming the biggest contributor to Manchester City's clean opponent. With this perfect performance, Donnarumma quickly won the hearts of fans and the respect of his teammates.
's debut was at its peak, and the key save was to secure the victory
Although Haaland scored two goals and Foden also scored a goal, the "Norwegian God Front" took the initiative to present the applause to his new teammates: "Don't forget Donnarumma! He is the real hero tonight. His performance is incredible, and I am willing to give him the 'best of the game'."
The game entered the second half, and Manchester United launched a fierce counterattack. In the 68th minute, Brian Mbeumo suddenly shot a cold arrow outside the penalty area, and the ball went straight to the dead corner of the goal like a cannonball. At the critical moment, Donnarumma flew to the side, stretched his body to block the ball out of the baseline, and made it clean and neat movements. This sweep not only ensured that the city gate was not lost, but also completely wiped out the hope of the Red Devils' equalization, and was hailed by the British media as "a god-level save that determines the direction of the game."
In the whole game, Donnarumma's seven shots against Manchester United were successfully resolved. His control of high-altitude balls, close-angle blocking and attack timing are all textbook-level, perfectly integrating Guardiola's tactical system of emphasizing ball control and high-level defense, showing the dominance of a world-class goalkeeper.
The famous people praised: their stunning debut in Europe's top goalkeepers has also won the recognition of football legends. Former Manchester United goalkeeper Edwin van der Sar praised in an interview with Sporting Milan: "He is one of the top goalkeepers in Europe today and has the same dominance as Neuer back then. In my opinion, he is tied with Alisson and Ederson, and is currently the three strongest goalkeepers in Europe."
This evaluation is undoubtedly a huge affirmation of the 26-year-old Italian international. He was controversial for leaving AC Milan to join Paris. Now he has made his name clear with a near-perfect performance in his debut in the Premier League and responded to all doubts with his strength.
The dramatic thing is that Donnarumma was originally the number one target for Manchester United's signing this summer. According to former Manchester United legendary goalkeeper Peter Schmeichel, he had communicated with Donnarumma many times when he was watching Paris in the Champions League last season, and made it clear: "We really hope you come to Manchester United." Donnarumma also responded at the time: "I yearn for playing in England."
However, Manchester United finally chose to sign young goalkeeper Senne Ramons, missing this experienced world-class goalkeeper. After the game, Schmeichel asked him half-jokingly: "Are you supposed to be standing in front of Manchester United's goal?" Donaruma replied with a smile: "I am very, very happy to be here now."
coach Guardiola also praised the new players: "Donaruma's performance is extremely outstanding, especially when defending corner kicks and set pieces. After that key save, I saw my teammates rushing up to hug him, which shows that he has won the trust of the whole team." Guardiola also emphasized that introducing such a top goalkeeper with rich experience in the Champions League and national team is an important strategic strengthening for Manchester City to compete for the championship this season.
