Despite folkloric preparation marked by internal tensions, Olympique de Marseille got off to a perfect start to its season by beating Stade de Reims (4-1) at the Vélodrome on Sunday evening.

A success that should calm things down a bit and give new coach Igor Tudor some well-deserved respite.

Because it's nothing to say that the Croatian will have to prove himself to win the love and respect of the bubbling Marseille public.

Evidenced by this mind-blowing bronca before kick-off, when the announcer chanted the name of the Croatian when the teams were announced.

On the other hand, big Bronca for Igor Tudor, at the time of the announcement of the compositions by the announcer.

No recent memory of an OM coach being whistled copiously for his official premiere at the Vélodrome #OMSDR

Marseille wants to confirm its good start, Sunday, in Brest

Asked at a press conference after the victory of his players, the former coach of Hellas Verona did not hold a grudge.

“I was inside, I didn't hear (the whistles).

The fans are always right, we play for them and they do what they want, he said.

Without them, there is no football.

Me, I have to work for the good of the team, which is also that of the supporters.

»

If the players have tried to defuse the situation, like Dimitri Payet, left on the bench at kick-off against Reims, Igor Tudor knows that his good understanding with his group and the supporters will go above all through victories over field.

He will have the opportunity to confirm this next Sunday on the lawn of Brest, where OM travel at the end of the second day of L1.
