During the 12th day of Ligue 1, RC Lens faced Olympique de Marseille at the Félix-Bollaert stadium, in a charged atmosphere including a magnificent tribute paid to former president Gervais Martel, who came to kick off. This meeting also marks the reunion between Elye Wahi, now a Marseille player, and his former Lens club.
Bollaert's bronca for Wahi
The French striker, who started on the bench, was the target of loud boos from Lens supporters as soon as the lineups were announced. The public did not fail to show their dissatisfaction with the man who had worn the colors blood and gold before joining Marseille. This opposition between Lens and Marseille, two teams in search of points after the international break, added a particular tension to the context. It remains to be seen whether Roberto De Zerbi, OM coach, will decide to bring Elye Wahi into the match.
