At home against Toulouse, OM lost points again this Sunday during the 5th day of L1 (0-0).

Already upset by Metz and Nantes this season, OM failed again this Sunday, neutralized by Toulouse for the 5e lifting of Ligue 1. Faced with the combative Haut-Garonnais who this season were able to keep PSG in check in particular (1-1), the Marseillais were content with a goalless draw in a packed and disappointed Vélodrome (0- 0). With the conclusion of a reframing facing the turns as is customary now. To the famous tune of “ Get wet or get out “.

Certainly deprived of Sarr for the occasion, but with the Vitinha-Aubameyang pair on the offensive, plus the Correa-Mughe tandem in support, the Olympians did not know how to stand out against the opposing goal – hardly more inspired at the thread of the match with the entries into play of Ndiaye or Harit. Cut in two in a configuration more akin to a 4-2-4 than a 4-4-2, the team led by Marcelino is in dire need of a detonator to really weigh on the opposite cage.

Of course the Phocaeans, who still worked tirelessly this day, touched wood twice – on a Rongier header (57e) and a free kick from Clauss (79e) – but they also benefited from Toulouse’s generosity and approximations in attack so as not to crack on the counterattack. From an accounting standpoint obviously, there is no fire in the lake in Marseille – OM being third in the championship after five days, tied with Nice, one and two lengths from Brest and Monaco. In the game, however, Ciel et Blanc will have to be much more convincing soon. Against Ajax on Thursday in the Europa League, but also against PSG and ASM in Ligue 1.
