The Marseille public did not fail to express their dissatisfaction. Friday evening opening of the 11e
day of Ligue 1, OM were defeated by Auxerre (1-3), notably with three goals conceded in the first period. A defeat which had the gift of pissing off the Vélodrome, which whistled its charges copiously at the final whistle.
Speaking to DAZN at the end of the match, Adrien Rabiot indicated that these whistles directed against him and his partners were totally deserved. “ The public is normal. When you’re OM, you can’t do a performance like that at home. Just as much, when we do things well, they are behind us and they push us, but there, they pushed the whole match. In the end, they’re not happy, that’s normal. We say it to each other, the coach knows it too, we deserve these whistles”thus judged the international tricolor.
Rabiot: “They are there to play for survival, we are here to play for the title”
“ In content, it is not enough, continued Rabiot. We concede too many goals, stupid goals. We worked on things, we didn’t put them in place. It’s a match unworthy of OM. We have to do some work on our minds. We see a different team when we play at home and away, it’s not normal. We have to keep working, there are things to review. We cannot lose at home against Auxerre when we have different objectives. They are there to play for survival, we are there to play for the title, qualification for the Champions League. Today was an off day. »
Disillusioned after the new poor performance of his men at the Vélodrome, Roberto De Zerbi said he was ready to resign at a post-match press conference. However, according to information from RMC Sport, the Olympian leaders maintain complete confidence in their coach and do not intend to part with him.
