After crushing ASSE (0-4) in the 32nd final of the Coupe de France, OM coach Roberto De Zerbi reaffirmed his ambition to win the competition. Reduced to 10 from the 20th minute, the Saint-Etienne opponent did not weigh heavily against the Marseillais in full control, especially during a first half dominated by the Phocaeans.
“We delivered a very good first period where we could have scored more,” said De Zerbi, proud of his team’s performances in recent weeks.
An ambitious season for De Zerbi and OM
The Italian coach, satisfied with the progress of his players, considers the Coupe de France as important as Ligue 1. “We play every game to win. There are no more or less important matches,” he clarified.
Located 10 points behind PSG with a match in hand, OM now benefits from the cohesion found thanks to intensive training courses. In view of a shock in the round of 16 against Lille, De Zerbi is clear:
“To be a good team, you have to overcome difficulties. We are on the right track. »
