Despite the great victory against Olympique Lyonnais (3-0) on Wednesday, Gennaro Gattuso did not want to indulge in triumphalism after the match.
Olympique de Marseille has had a particularly successful last seven days with three victories in as many matches. After the success snatched at the last minute in the Europa League against Ajax Amsterdam, OM subsequently dominated Stade Rennais (2-0) then Olympique Lyonnais (3-0) in Ligue 1. What bring a smile back to the Marseille camp.
Questioned after the meeting, Gennaro Gattuso, however, did not want to get excited, not forgetting where the Marseillais came from. “ We are very happy with these three victories. It allows us to breathe, but we haven’t done anything yet. We are coming out of a period that was anything but positive, it was not easy. But that’s what I told the team – I don’t know if I can say it – but when you eat so much shit, you have to remember. Now we go back to the ranking “, he said in front of the microphones.
The Italian technician could be all the more satisfied as this good match for the Olympians owes a lot to the three defenders scheme put in place. And this despite the reluctance of its players. “ They weren’t 100% convinced yesterday, but we had a good match, the one we expected “, he explained.
