The Roberto de Zerbi team approached this last match with the awareness of the need to obtain a positive result to qualify for the Champions League.
A fierce performance against Lille allowed the two teams to stay equally until the 57th minute, when Mémé Gouiri finally opened the scoring. Marseille could not keep this advantage, Matias Fernandez-Pardo restoring equality in the 74th minute. Finally, the two teams, who aimed at a place in the top 4, had to settle for a point sharing.
Greenwood, who has sometimes been replacing this season, has played the entire match, while Marseille was looking for a new victory to get back on his mind. He has 18 goals and four assists in Ligue 1, but did not find the net against Lille. Most of his attempts did not succeed, the 23 -year -old winger who had a largely frustrating evening, his creativity having remained contained.
Greenwood remained silent against Lille
The team awarded the score of five to Greenwood. We read it: ”
Apart from a few moments of collective play – a good ball for Murillo (34th) and a dangerous center (43rd) -, it has constantly favored individual options, even if it means spoiling promising situations. Sometimes frustrating in his decisions, he nevertheless managed to be threatening and gain precious meters with each touch of the ball. ”
Foot Mercato is slightly more positive in his analysis, as the newspaper underlines after having attributed the note of six to Greenwood: ” Very enterprising, he continued to put pressure on the defense. He made an excellent dribble before centering near the post, always dangerous. »»
The Phocaean awarded the note of 6.5 to Greenwood and analyzed: ” He was back to try new things. Even if he did not succeed everything, the young Englishman really made the difference. We will remember in particular his superb pass in the Murillo race in the first half. ”
