Victim of an unfavorable refereeing decision in the last minute of the match against Atalanta (0-1), Olympique de Marseille sees its future in
Champions League darken.
The pill is difficult to swallow in the Marseille ranks, after the match referee made the decision not to whistle a penalty on a handball from Atalanta midfielder Emerson, before the Italian club found the net on the counter that followed.
Roberto De Zerbi, running out of solutions.
However, OM should not take refuge behind arbitration according to Daniel Riolo. The RMC journalist was particularly virulent towards the Marseille players after this Wednesday’s meeting.
Riolo denounces “professional misconduct”
“First point, I don’t understand anymore, second point, I don’t understand, third point, I don’t understand anything. If we’re talking about refereeing this evening to explain OM’s performance, it’s because we don’t understand anything about football. You have to move on to another sport, thundered Riolo. If an OM supporter doesn’t talk to me about OM’s production, what the coach is doing, why the players aren’t moving, why there is no movement in this team, why we don’t understand anything about tactics… If they don’t explain that to me, don’t talk to me about the referees. »
“They were so bad that they saw salvation through this action, the possibility of the robbery. The disappointment of perhaps getting out through the very small window… They stopped on this action and it is a professional mistake not to continue the action, not to pay attention and to take the goal on the counter-attack which, in the end, is well deserved for Atalanta for what they had done in this match. It’s an undeniable victory.” concluded Riolo.
