The evening turned into a disaster for Olympique de Marseille. While they had a golden opportunity to regain the leadership position following the draw conceded by PSG in Lorient, the Marseillais were also left with a draw (2-2) on their lawn at the Vélodrome.
After the Angevins opened the score in the first half, OM were able to react in the second half, managing to take the lead thanks to a double from Robinio Vaz, but added time was fatal to Roberto De Zerbi’s troops, with Ousmane Camara snatching the equalizer in the final moments of the match.
But the main thing was elsewhere for the Marseille players, who saw Bilal Nadir collapse on the pitch, victim of illness. Placed in a lateral safety position by his teammates and opponents, the young Moroccan midfielder had to be evacuated to hospital.
“He’s fine”
“It was a shock for everyone when we saw him on the pitch,” commented Matt O’Riley in the mixed zone. If the native of Nice was conscious when he left the field, there was concern.
“He regained consciousness, he went to the hospital for tests and checks. We are all concerned, we hope it’s nothing serious,” said Roberto De Zerbi shortly after the final whistle. Matt O’Riley wanted to be more reassuring. “He’s fine. For me, this is the most important, did he slip. We wish him good luck. »
