The former president of Olympique Lyonnais, Jean-Michel Aulas, criticized the League’s decision to replay the OM-OL match at the Vélodrome stadium.
After the serious incidents on the sidelines of Olympico OM-OL, the LFP decided not to sanction the Marseille club and to replay the match on November 6, again in Marseille. A decision that makes people cringe, particularly those of Jean-Michel Aulas.
During an event organized in Clairefontaine this Monday, the former Lyon president took the floor to criticize the League’s decision to replay this match at the Vélodrome stadium.
“The League and the club cannot exempt themselves”
“I said it the next day. I can’t say no to everything because I am a member of the Comex and the board of directors of the Leagueindicated Aulas in comments relayed by RMC Sport. We’re going to ditch the caps. I’ve been in professional football for 36 years. There have already been incidents in Marseille of this type, which were managed because the delegate was in the bus next to the president or the coach at the time and he was able to draw a certain number of consequences. Unfortunately, the delegate did not take a seat on the bus. But the fact remains that the League and the club cannot exempt themselves. In UEFA, when you play in the Champions League, we were sanctioned, Olympique Lyonnais, at the time of the match against the Trucs. Responsibility exists. Personally, I didn’t imagine that the match could be replayed in Marseille. There’s a call, we’ll see what happens. »
