Bordeaux-OM express debrief (0-0) -

20 Minutes

  • OM brought back the draw for Bordeaux despite the expulsion of two players half an hour from the end.

  • Always very average in the game, the Marseillais seem to regain their senses little by little.

    The heads are better.

  • We will have to wait for confirmation this week against Nice and Nantes to know if the crisis is really behind them.

Sometimes you have to know how to be satisfied with little.

And even more in the current situation of OM.

So snatch from a draw (0-0) in Bordeaux despite a last half hour in double numerical inferiority can only balm the hearts of Marseille supporters in the current stagnation.

The first of them, Nasser Larguet:

We saw a valiant team, we played with a lot of solidarity at the end of the match.

I was convinced that my players could hold out.

Tonight, we won a team and we may be mentally healed ”.

To be sure, we will obviously have to wait for confirmation, especially against Nice and Nantes this week.

But it is true that there is better, at least in the state of mind.

At the same time, OM could hardly fall lower.

In Bordeaux, the first half was very complicated but in the end, there was "this bad for a good" says the Marseille coach.

That is to say these two expulsions, in quick succession, of Balerdi and Benedetto at the heart of the second act.

At that time, many naturally thought that the Marseille boat had a very good chance of sinking vertically.

Well no !

"I feel that there is better ..."

Like Pape Gueye, OM have finally shown "a good state of mind" and that is "what must be remembered" for the young midfielder.

Guided by Mandanda who could be heard from the platform, the Marseillais broke but not cracked.

And yet, they ended the meeting with an “bis” defense - Lirola, Perrin, Kamara, Nagatomo - and young Dieng in front.

"I have the feeling of a duty accomplished on the part of my players, insists Nasser Larguet, I have faith in my players and I feel that there is also the best in training and that the team is united" .

Benedetto was expelled to Bordeaux.

If Marseille remains stuck in the soft underbelly of the championship (9th), the Phocéens are finally only four points from European places with two games less.

But we will have to do at least with two more absentees in the next match.

This is the black point of the evening when OM already has a long list of absentees.

But here too Nasser Larguet does not dramatize.

The Marseille coach intends to "rely on this team to further improve it" and not he "does not tinker because there are players who are there and who can seize their chance".

He simply calls on them to "question themselves" because victory will come through that.

He still hopes to recover Payet and Alvaro on Wednesday in the late match against Nice.
