OM penalized by VAR, it’s confirmed

By the Brest camp’s own admission, Olympique de Marseille should have benefited from a penalty in the first period.

It’s the world upside down. While Olympique de Marseille suffered yet another poor performance on Sunday, losing to Brest (0-1) at the end of the 22e day, the Olympians only blamed themselves, pointing the finger at their lack of character or the poverty of their game.

In Brest, although we obviously savored this new victory, we did not forget to thank the VAR, which did not intervene in the first period when OM should have been awarded a penalty.

“I think we got hot on this action. I think there is a penalty, yes, recognized Pierre Lees-Melou at the Prime Video microphone. I normally complain a lot about referees, but this time, I think we were lucky. I see that the Marseillais pushes his ball too far, but he plays the shot well by putting his leg in front. Looking back at the action, I see that my action was very limited. Frankly, we were lucky, we must admit. Thank you VAR! »
