Some at the UNFP consider that today’s Olympico should not have been played in Marseille.
Almost a month and a half after the postponement of the Olympico counting for the 10e lifting of Ligue 1, Marseillais and Lyonnais will finally be able to face each other. On the Vélodrome lawn and in public.
If the Minister of Sports Amélie Oudéa-Castéra considered that this rescheduling in the Marseille city and in the presence of supporters was “the least bad solution”, the vice-president of the UNFP, the union of professional footballers in France, n I don’t agree with this.
According to David Terrier, the “ more equitable » would have been to play this match on neutral ground. “ The players, I put myself in their place: we ask them to play in the same stadium with the public, under the same conditions. Psychologically, for me, the match is flawed. OL players are not in optimal conditions to play this match “, said the person concerned on the airwaves of France Info.
