Olympique de Marseille is not moving forward. This Saturday evening, for their return to Ligue 1 after the incidents before the match against Olympique Lyonnais, the Marseillais were held in check on their lawn by LOSC with a score of 0 to 0. A result which does not make Men’s Affairs by Gennaro Gattuso.

The Olympians are provisionally in 8th place in Ligue 1 with a total of 13 points. Discreet and once again silent, Gabonese striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang was whistled by the Marseille public when he left at the end of the match to make way for Joaquin Correa (77th).

After the match, Marseille captain Valentin Rongier defended his teammate in the mixed zone. For him, the whistles towards number 10 are very harsh. “ For me it’s very hard, on the part of the supporters, to whistle him. We know how football is today, people are very demanding. Now we are all together. The whistles are not for him but for the team. He has a lot of experience. In any case we’re here but I hope it doesn’t affect him.” he observed.

Before completing his remarks: “We are OM, we cannot be satisfied with that, we claim to be well above in the ranking. We’re going to be, I’m sure of it. We have a series of complicated matches but that’s how it is. If we have 13 points, it’s because there are things that haven’t happened. Now what we have been doing for a while, it is very serious, we must continue and put all heads right. »

OM will have to rectify their situation as they enter a decisive week with two important matches. This Thursday in the Europa League on the AEK Athens pitch and in Ligue 1 at the Stade Bollaert against Racing Club de Lens.
