The sports director of Paris SG Leonardo denounced Sunday, after the defeat of his team against Marseille (1-0), "a match out of control", criticizing the choice of a referee according to him inexperienced, as well as a " Clasico "scheduled too early at the start of the season.
OM ended a nine-year scarcity against PSG by winning Sunday at the Parc des Princes after an electric match, marked by five exclusions.
"14 yellow cards and five reds, it means that the match was out of control," reacted Leonardo at the microphone of Telefoot.
The Brazilian said that the referee of the meeting, Jérôme Brisard, who had refereed the final of the League Cup, "may not have the experience for a match like that".
"This is not to criticize the referee, but maybe this is not the time to referee a clasico", insisted the sporting director of the Parisian club.
Leonardo also regretted that the meeting is only played after a day of the championship when "nobody is 100%", three weeks after the defeat of Paris SG in the final of the Champions League against Bayern Munich.
