Dembélé hurt OM again

We still remember his superb goal in the first leg which gave OL success (2-1).

We will still remember his performance at the Vélodrome this Sunday evening, when “his” OL won (0-3).

He single-handedly extinguished the Velodrome.

Precious to weigh on the Marseille defense, he forced them to be vigilant throughout the meeting.

Stumbling at first on Pau Lopez on Lyon's first goal, he ended up scoring himself with a nice header against Pau Lopez (76th).

His physical presence still hurt OM.

Gusto, tireless

Revealed one evening at PSG-Lyon last September, when he had done well against the current leader, Malo Gusto was still successful in a big meeting.

The right side, preferred to the more experienced Dubois, was not really impressed by the atmosphere at the Vélodrome.

Resistant to the percussions of Gerson or the climbs of Kolasinac, he especially brought offensively by not hesitating to provoke his vis-à-vis.

His action on Lyon's second goal testifies to his strength of character.

Going to the end of his effort on his wing, he had the lucidity to send a perfect cross for Dembélé.

Bosz's plan worked well

Often criticized this season, Peter Bosz has, to say the least, prepared this shock well.

Choosing to line up the young Gusto and Barcola on the right wing, he dominated this side and his team generally mastered the game.

With his 4-2-3-1, he lined up technical players in the midfield to bring out the balls well and made wise choices.

This victory is also his.

FLOPS

Milik has wasted too much

Not always a starter, Arkadiusz Milik will not calm the doubts surrounding him.

Aligned from the start, the Pole was active and distinguished himself well in the first period by an interesting presence in the area.

Except that realism was sorely lacking.

He thus obtained four good chances in the first 50 minutes but each time lacked the promptness or skill to conclude.

A fatal mess for OM when the score was still 0-0.

Pau Lopez, doubts resurface

While he had given way to Mandanda, Pau Lopez took over for this shock.

Except that he is not exempt from any reproach on this match with a first goal conceded where he seems hesitant in his exit against Dembélé.

Also not imperial on the 2nd goal conceded, he was a spectator on the 3rd.

Not breathing serenity on opposing set pieces, the Spanish goalkeeper saw some doubts reappear.

Sampaoli, a missed bet

OM's last half hour was very messy and Sampaoli's changes can explain it.

Because seeing his team led, the Argentinian technician released Kolasinac, then Gueye in order to take risks.

Except that the Phocaeans were pierced on the Lyon counterattacks, as evidenced by the 2nd and 3rd goals conceded.

A choice not paying and which did not put its players in the best conditions, starting with Dimitri Payet, who did not have the expected influence.
