Igor Tudor, the OM coach eliminated by Annecy (2-2, 6 shots on goal to 7) in the quarter-finals of the Coupe de France, confided his feelings after the meeting on Wednesday evening: "
It is a great disappointment, a great sadness.
We are coming out of a competition where we eliminated PSG and Rennes, it's madness.
Apart from a few details, I'm having a little trouble explaining this at the moment.
There is no break, just great sadness.
I don't think the players underestimated the opponent.
Annecy played a great match, at a level that I never imagined for an L2 team.
On our side, everything that could go wrong has gone wrong.
Our flaws came out.
Taking two goals at home is not justifiable.
And in front, we couldn't tell the difference.
They defended themselves tooth and nail, we had a post, chances, a missed penalty... They gave their all and they succeeded.
Clearly, when you go out against an L2, it's because you did badly.
