Disappointed with his team’s defeat in Lens, Olympique de Marseille playmaker Amine Harit called on his teammates to “put their heads right” and work hard to get back into the race for the podium.
Olympique de Marseille had a mixed week. After their victory against AEK Athens (0-2) last Thursday in the Europa League, the Phocaeans fell against RC Lens (1-0) in Ligue 1 on Sunday. The defeat, conceded in the final moments, aroused the bitterness of Amine Harit.
“We have to compete for the podium every season”
“We will have to put our heads back together, me first and work hard to re-attack well after the break,” said the Moroccan international in the mixed zone. We had a bad start to the season, we left points where we shouldn’t. Today we are paying for it. (…) We know what awaits us when we come to OM, the demands of this club. I think the important thing is time but we don’t have any. »
“When we play for OM, we have to reach the podium every season, it must be normal to raise our standards. As I said, there have been a lot of new players, recruitments discussed… We must no longer think about that, today we have our squad, we will have to work together. Today we pay for the few matches that I have in my throat, in Nantes, in Metz, in Toulouse at the Vélodrome… These matches are expensive today,” explained the native of Pontoise.
