A senior player from Olympique de Marseille put on a show with his national team this week.

At the age of 32, Geronimo Rulli is certainly going through the best period of his career. Arrived at theMarseille Olympic last summer, the Argentinian goalkeeper already had some reference matches with the Marseille club. His first appearance in Ligue 1, in Brest (5-1), made a particular impression.

A modern goalkeeper rather comfortable in his kicking game, the former Montpellier remains above all a last barrier difficult to cross on his line, where his explosiveness and his reflexes can work miracles. And it’s not just with his club that Rulli demonstrates this.

Rulli puts on a show in Argentina’s goals

During the night from Thursday to Friday, Geronimo Rulli was the author of an excellent performance for Argentina. Established in the Albiceleste goals, the OM goalkeeper was the author of a sublime save in the 47th minute, upon returning from the locker room, on a header from a corner for Venezuela.

Thanks to this intervention compared to the legendary save by English goalkeeper Gordon Banks, Rulli avoided the worst for Argentina, who were held by Venezuela in this AmSud zone match counting for the qualifying campaign for the 2026 World Cup .
