Julien Stéphan cannot digest OM’s second goal against his Stade Rennais.
Julien Stéphan was not satisfied with the performance of his players on Sunday at the Stade Vélodrome (2-0). But it is particularly the second goal of Olympique de Marseille, scored by Azzedine Ounahi, that he has difficulty digesting. The Stade Rennais coach does not understand how the Moroccan could have found himself in such a favorable situation. The former Angers player was actually able to progress into the Breton area and shoot Steve Mandanda without really encountering any opposition.
“That second goal was too easy. We were three against one, maybe four against one… I don’t know if it’s a question of age, but you have to learn quickly at this level. Faced with opponents like them, with individual qualities like that, they take advantage of it,” explained Stéphan on Amazon Prime.
Between Jeanuel Belocian, Christopher Wooh (guilty of the foul which caused the penalty converted by Aubemayang) and Warmed Omari, the Rennes once again lined up an inexperienced defense which conceded three goals while OM only scored five times…
Ounahi, who has failed at OM for several months and was frequently cited in rumors of departure this winter, was not impressed by the Rennes rearguard. Much more in his legs after the break, the Marseille attacking midfielder, starting in the midfield alongside Geoffrey Kondogbia, perhaps holds the action which will restore the confidence he has lost since the start of the season.
