After the match against Lens, OM coach Gennaro Gattuso shared his impressions, highlighting the difficulty and intensity of the French championship

This Sunday, Olympique de Marseille suffered another setback against Lens (1-0), thus closing the 12th day of Ligue 1. The Phocéens were beaten at Bollaert by a goal from Jonathan Gradit in the last seconds. This defeat led to a drop in the standings, placing Ciel et Blanc in 10th place. After the match, coach Gennaro Gattuso gave his analysis of the match, highlighting the demanding physical level of the French championship.

“It was a pretty tough, intense match, with a team that played hard on man. We made too many mistakes, I expected much better from my team. I am not satisfied with this match,” he confided to Prime Video.

And added: “It’s the level of Ligue 1, a more difficult championship than people say,” he assured. I don’t think the players didn’t understand (the tactics). We saw a team that crosses a lot, and we were perhaps a little inferior on a physical level. »
