Starting tomorrow evening, OM returns to work with a very important round of 16 to negotiate against Lille at the Vélodrome. The Coupe de France, a declared objective for Leonardo Balerdi who did not hide his attraction for this trophy at a press conference. “The Coupe de France is a goal, of course.

This is the quickest way to take a title. We take it with this responsibility,” announces Balerdi.

If he does this and someone else does it, we will have to take responsibility. »
