The success of Olympique de Marseille against Stade Brestois (3-0), this Saturday in Ligue 1, allowed the Phocéens to end the week on a positive note. Beaten by Atalanta (0-1) on Wednesday in the Champions League, Roberto De Zerbi’s men managed to catch up three days later in the championship.
Thanks to this victory, the French vice-champion temporarily regains the lead in the ranking ahead of RC Lens and Paris Saint-Germain. The latter can nevertheless get back in front in the event of success against Olympique Lyonnais on Sunday evening.
“We were never really lucky”
After the match against the Ty Zefs at the Vélodrome, Roberto De Zerbi took the opportunity to take stock of the start of the Olympian season:“We do good things, without being perfect. We were never really lucky: we lost a lot of points late in the match. Sometimes he missed a little something, but against Rennes, Lyon, Angers, Atalanta or even Madrid, we deserved better, in Ligue 1 as in the Champions League. »
“In C1, nothing is lost. It’s not impossible, although it will be difficult. Ligue 1 is long, we are only mid-November. From Lorient to November 8, we are first: this is a fact not to be forgotten”underlined the transalpine technician.
