Maresca admits Donnarumma's errors but backs him to start at Forest

📰 Maresca admitted Donnarumma's mistakes but said he still backs his goalkeeper. 📌 Key points 🧤 Maresca defended Donnarumma at his Friday news conference. ⚠️ Baku's tame shot went in at the near post against Leipzig. 🗣️ Maresca said he is good overall but must avoid errors. 📋 Donnarumma was expected to start at Forest. 📝 What happened ⚽ City won 3-2 at Leipzig on Wednesday, but Donnarumma let Baku's shot slip in at his near post. In the second half a free-kick looped over him and hit the crossbar. 🎙️ Maresca said Donnarumma recognises he has made some mistakes but also made good saves. With him it is easy, he said, because he admits it at once. 🔄 The only other option is Gerónimo Rulli, who joined from Marseille in the summer and has played twice in the Carabao Cup this season. 📊 By the numbers • Donnarumma is 27. • Rulli has two appearances, both in the Carabao Cup. • The Leipzig game finished 3-2. 🔭 Why it matters 🏆 City then lost 3-1 at Forest, so scrutiny of the goalkeeper position is unlikely to ease. 📅 City host Fulham on 21 November.
