OM faces Sporting in Lisbon this Wednesday in the third act of the Champions League. A poster which also applies to the young Olympians, opposed to the same Lisbonns in the framework of the Youthleague.
After two losses recorded against Ajax (3-5) and against Real Madrid (3-2), the Marseille kids had no other choice but to finally launch themselves on Portuguese soil. It was a wasted effort since Lasaad Hasni's players lost 2-1.
Jul summoned by Sporting players
Darryl Bakola's equalizing goal at the start of the second half was not enough to revive the Marseillais while the locals were quick to find the fault. From the 11e
minute. The final blow having been delivered in money time, at 81e minute of play.
Their first goal, the Sporting players celebrated in an original way, by brandishing a T-shirt stamped Jul, the famous Marseille rapper who enjoys enormous popularity among footballers. A nice chambering that some will interpret more as a tribute.
