It is a defeat that does not pass. Already beaten at the outward journey by the Icaunais at the Vélodrome, Olympique de Marseille took a new slap on the AJ Auxerre field (3-0) Saturday evening, during the 23rd day of Ligue 1.
More than the result and the way, it was arbitration that caused the Phocaeans' anger. Once again this season, we have to add, faced with the repetition of the controversies that follow each of the matches of the men of Roberto de Zerbi. Whether justified or not, the atmosphere is quite deleterious about the Olympians. And Mr. Stinat, already pinned before the meeting (due to his litigation with Medhi Benatia during the meeting against Lille in the Coupe de France), made two unfavorable decisions to OM.
“I think the referee was not ready for today's match. I am Italian and after OM I will come home, the problem is for you, the French, it is impossible to accept that ”, Heard Roberto de Zerbi, about an unpilled penalty on Quentin Merlin in the first period and a red card inflicted on Derek Cornelius for an uncontrolled gesture.
OM ready to leave Ligue 1?
It is obviously the drop of too much for the leaders of OM, and Pablo Longoria stung a huge anger in the stands after the Red of Cornelius. After the meeting, hot, the Olympian president was still out of him. To the point of brandishing a huge threat in words reported by Provence.
“In 20 years of career, I have never seen this type of thing! Everything is organized from Balerdi's yellow in Angers. It's real corruption! It is planned, this story is oriented. There is a penalty on Merlin, four European referees told me that it was. And the biggest scandal is the red card of Cornelius. It's a shit championship, Hissed Pablo Longoria, ready to snap the door. If OM has a proposal for the Super League, we leave immediately. »»
