Big frustration on the OM side this Sunday evening. Roberto De Zerbi's men had a great opportunity, at home against Strasbourg, to make a gap on the pursuers in the race for second place, while maintaining the pressure on PSG. But conceding a draw (1-1) is a real bad deal, especially after the elimination in the Coupe de France.
A penalty from Rowe causes controversy
Logically, the Marseillais were therefore on edge and a certain Leonardo Balerdi let out a big rant. In question, the referee's decision not to whistle a penalty for a potential foul on Jonathan Rowe at the end of the match. The Marseille captain could not contain his annoyance at a time when OM is already tense on the refereeing subject. “It’s starting to do a lot. Disputed situations with the referee […] There is clearly a penalty! They made 1000 fouls, the referee whistled a little but that's it […] the red cards are only against us! Anyway, it’s always the same against OM,” said the Marseille captain.
