Last week, ASSE hosted Olympique de Marseille for the 14th day of League 1. Unlike last week, after the Rennes rout (0-5), the club's communications department offers us a video of the behind the scenes of the week's preparation with exclusive images of the group. Here is the preparation for the meeting against Roberto De Zerbi's players.
A match to forget for ASSE
The match begins with a style opposition between two teams who offer opposing football. More in possession, Marseille monopolizes the ball from Stéphanois. Nevertheless, the Greens offered themselves the first situation from the third minute of play. Found in depth, the number 1 danger from Stéphane Zuriko Davitashvili struck, transplanted inside and struck. His attempt forces the visitors' goalkeeper into a fine save. This will be the one and only opportunity in this very bland match for the Stéphanois.
Olympique de Marseille will accelerate and monopolize the ball at ASSE. Moreover, after 20 minutes of play, possession of the ball was 80% in favor of the Olympians against 20% for the Stéphanois. A scary but very real statistic. And, it is therefore logical that Neal Maupay's teammates will offer the score. The former Stéphanois found the French international Adrien Rabiot in the area with a clever deflection. The latter controls the chest and shoots Gautier Larsonneur who can do nothing. 1-0 for the southerners. This is the score at half-time despite the indisputable domination of Marseille.
In the second half, the oranges slowed down. The Stéphanois were less overwhelmed than during the first half but did not create any real chances. In a trivial situation, Mason Greenwood is unbalanced in the area by Léo Pétrot. Penalty, the 8th in 14 matches against ASSE. The English take charge of converting the opportunity and have to try twice to score. 2-0 for OM! This is the final score of a match without relief for the Greens.
