For Jean-Louis Gasset, times are tough at OM. After a successful arrival at the end of February, the new Olympian coach is starting to slip and has just suffered a third consecutive defeat in the league this Friday evening in Lille (3-1).
A new symbolic setback for the Marseillais who did not show much at the Pierre-Mauroy stadium, scoring an anecdotal goal thanks to a monumental blunder by the Lille defense. At the end of the meeting, Jean-Louis Gasset was not kind to his players.
“We were rubbish”
“The feeling that drives me? Anger. (…) In the first half, we controlled, had counter balls, situations to finish, but we are shy, commented Jean-Louis Gasset after the match on Prime Video. In the second half, we gave them the match. Only gifts. Today we were very bad. We sucked. »
“When we return this copy this evening, when there are a thousand spectators who have come, there is a feeling of shame because we have disrespected football and many people,” he said. added, visibly marked by this defeat.

Conversely, his Losc counterpart Paulo Fonseca was delighted with his team's “very good match”: “We prepared this match very well and we did what we had prepared. (…) It's not easy to win two matches at home like we did, against teams like Lens (2-1 last week, Editor's note) and Marseille. I am very proud of my players. »
