Manchester City do not have any fixtures for eight days, but there is still plenty to keep an eye on as the weekend approaches.

Gianluigi Donnarumma keeps a clean sheet for Italy

Gianluigi Donnarumma stood tall as Italy defeated Northern Ireland 2-0, keeping a clean sheet during the match in Bergamo.

However, the Italian only actually had to make once save across the 90 minutes, while he prevented 0.11 goals. Still, Donnarumma did make nine recoveries, so it was not like he was static all night long.

He was not the only Man City player on international duty, with Rayan Cherki included in France’s squad to face Brazil. Unfortunately, the winger failed to make an appearance off the bench.
