OM is in difficulty. As on the lawn of AJ Auxerre on February 22, Marseille hit the bottom at the Auguste-Delaune stadium. The Olympians bowed against Reims (3-1), for the 27th day of Ligue 1.. This is the third loss in L1 for OM. Worse, the men of Roberto de Zerbi even lost their 2nd place in the ranking, following the victory of AS Monaco against Nice (2-1).
After Adrien Rabiot and Geronimo Rulli, Valentin Rongier, the Marseille scorer of the match, sounded the alarm.
“Today is the attitude that has caught. It is especially it in fact. We can lose games, we know the difficulty of professional football, but when we are OM and we want to reach our goal which is to go to the Champions League and finish 2nd, we cannot afford to have an attitude like that on such important matches “he launches in the mixed zone.
Go ahead
“For me, it starts from there. It starts from there, when you start a match and lose the duels, the second balls … in high -level football, we cannot exist. Whether it's a national team, Reims, PSG or another team, it's the same thing. You have to have this desire to kill the opponent, you have to have this desire to win all duels. And today, for me, in the races, in efforts, in mobility, we were not there ”he continues.
However, the midfielder remains optimistic about the continuation of the championship. “Now there are still seven games. It is not a political speech that I am making you. But we have this chance of being able to catch up. I really hope that we are going quickly, quickly erase that. And that we're going to start from the front, with a head high. By working above all, and being very humble. Because there, we have to make a low profile, get back to work and show a different face ”he said.
Thus, the OM season and the maintenance of Roberto de Zerbi at the head of the Marseille club will be played on the next seven matches. The final sprint begins next Sunday with the reception of Toulouse, before moving to Monaco, Saturday April 12.
