On Prime Video, Friday evening, in the wake of Metz-OM (2-2), Ludovic Obraniak offered an analysis that completely shocked Marseille supporters. The Marseille team certainly evolved to 11 against 10, but had bad luck, as during Tuesday’s elimination in the Champions League.
Broadcaster of Ligue 1 since 2021, Prime Video offers a remarkable treatment of the French championship, with a presentation of the matches and comments of great professionalism and analyzes appreciated by the consultants. Except that the debrief of OM’s draw in Metz (2-2), Friday evening, at the start of the second day of the championship, scandalized the Marseille supporters. It must be said that the opinion of Ludovic Obraniak is difficult to understand…
” I have always seen an OM in action, which was an actor in its matches, I have seen an OM in reaction since the start of the season. Admittedly, we see them come back when they are in difficulty, they bounce back, but they never take matters into their own hands, at 10 against 11, they concede two goals against Metz, when they probably had the game in hand. It’s quite inexplicable in the way they operate. But if we go a little further, I’m going to put my feet in the dish, Igor Tudor’s team from last season did not lose the double confrontation against Panathinaikos and were going to win 3 points tonight “Launched the consultant, also very comfortable in front of the camera.
Metz in success, cursed OM
A native of Longeville-lès-Metz, trained at FC Metz and necessarily a supporter of Grenats, Obraniak would have liked to see his team win in a Saint-Symphorien Stadium on fire. The promoted reversed the situation to 10 against 11 in the second half, but it was rather improbable, with a long shot from Cheikh Sabaly blocked which lobbed Pau Lopez (65th) and an attempt from Georges Mikautadze which escaped to the Spanish goalkeeper (71st). His analysis inevitably pissed off the Marseille supporters who watched the Amazon VOD channel. If Marcelino’s style is different from that of the coach of last season, it must be said that the Marseille players had many chances, shooting 22 times on goal, with 3 amounts touched.
OM also suffered the decisions of the VAR, as during their elimination in the third qualifying round against Panathinaikos on Tuesday (2-1 victory, 3 pens to 5). Valentin Rongier thought he scored the 2-0 goal in the 52nd minute, but the video referee detected a foul from Ismaïla Sarr at the start of the action. However, the journalists and Prime Video consultants on this crazy Metz-OM, including Obraniak, all considered that it was not a manifest error on the part of Mr. Brisard and that his VAR assistant did not therefore had no need to reconsider the duel in question.
