Hi Luigi,
This is pretty easy using "plot" and "lines":

# assume your example data
plot(g1,col ="red",type = "l", lwd = 2,
     xlab = "Days since start", ylab = "Count of infections",
     main = "Daily cases of COVID-19")
lines(g2,col="black", lwd = 2)
lines(g3,col="blue", lwd = 2)
text(c(15,80,53),rep(6000,3),
 c("China","Germany","Italy"),col=c("red","black","blue"))
