Whistled by the Vélodrome when he had not yet played a single match with his new team, Igor Tudor turned everyone around in a few months and here he is, after a second success in a row in the Champions League (a first since the invention of printing) against Sporting (2-0), second in the group, in a good position to qualify for the round of 16.

“It's a fantastic feeling.

We had a good game from start to finish.

We totally deserve the three points.

We were good for 90 minutes.

I am proud for the club and the fans.

Now, with these six points, we can start dreaming of passing.

There are still two games left and everyone can pass, ”he explained at a press conference on Wednesday evening.

“With these six points, the confidence is high but it was already the case before, enthused the Croatian coach.

The team is in good shape, in a good moment.

Yesterday, several players came to see me yesterday to tell me 'coach, calm down, we are going to win'.

It's a good feeling.

Now it's open, we have to see match after match, and do what is necessary.

But it's good to be in this position.

Marseille with its destiny in hand

Asked about the performance of Amine Harit, monstrous Wednesday in Portugal, Igor Tudor, who is said to be stingy with compliments, let go.

"He was amazing today," he said.

I am very happy for him, he is a fantastic boy.

I think he likes this kind of football, which is perfect for him.

When we attack, he takes the spaces, he has the ability to combine, to make one-twos.

For me, he is a complete, high-level striker.

Today he really made the difference.

In a still very open group where everyone can still dream of qualifying, the Marseillais, second behind Tottenham, are on favorable waivers, level on points with Sporting (but with a better goal difference), but Eintracht Frankfurt is only a small point behind.

It is precisely to these Germans that the band at Tudor will travel in 15 days (October 26) hoping to take their revenge after the narrow defeat (0-1) at the Vélodrome.
