PSG goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma gets sent off for horror kung-fu kick… and appears to claim HE was fouled

GIANLUIGI DONNARUMMA appeared to claim he was fouled after being sent off for Paris Saint-Germain.

The goalkeeper was shown a straight red card for a horror kung-fu kick during his side's trip to Le Havre on Sunday.

Donnarumma was caught outside his area after a long ball over the top caused confusion in his defence.

As the Italian attempted to volley the ball away, Le Havre's Jose Casimir beat him to the ball.

He was then caught by Donnarumma's trailing foot and left rolling around in agony on the floor.

Referee Bastien Dechepy was left with little choice but to send off the PSG stopper as Casimir had an open goal to aim at if he was not fouled.

However, it did not stop Donnarumma from protesting against the decision.

He appeared to argue with Dechepy and claim he had been the one fouled after colliding with Casimir.

The dismissal left the French champions a man down just 10 minutes into the match at the Stade Oceane.

In response, Luis Enrique was forced to hand Spanish keeper Arnau Tenas his debut.

The 22-year-old had yet to make an appearance for PSG since signing from Barcelona in the summer.

Donnarumma has come under pressure from pundits and fans in recent weeks for his shaky form.

Sunday's red card will do little to boost their confidence, either, with the 24-year-old now set to be sidelined through suspension.
