Pisaryov Evaluates Safonov's Performance in PSG Final Match

Russia national team coach Nikolay Pisaryov shared his thoughts on Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) goalkeeper Matvey Safonov's performance in the Intercontinental Cup final against Brazil’s Flamengo. Pisaryov stated that Safonov’s appearance was truly an exceptional case.

According to him, the uniqueness of the situation lies in the fact that the goalkeeper continued saving penalties despite being injured. “It’s rare for someone to save two penalties while playing with a fracture.

I was surprised when Enrique suggested he needed rest. After this final, it would have been a headache for me: should Safonov or Shevalye start from the first minutes in goal?” Pisaryov commented on “Match TV.”

This season, Safonov has played in four matches for PSG, keeping a clean sheet in two of them. On December 19, PSG announced that Matvey would miss several weeks of games due to his injury.
