The reaction of OM striker Neal Maupay after his team's victory against Le Havre (5-1) this Sunday evening at the Stade Vélodrome during the 16th day of the championship.
“It’s nice to score, but it’s not the most important thing today. We just wanted to have a good match to start the year off well and that's what we did. It's true that it's not easy to touch a few balls, but that's a bit my role in the system in which we play. Faced with a team that plays low, the coach asks me not to let go, otherwise I take the space of number 10 and the midfielders. It's not easy to stay focused, because sometimes you feel like you're not in the match. It's really in the head, it's mental. The ball is going to arrive and you have to be ready when it arrives. Afterwards, I had two in the second half and it should have been a goal, that's what I told the coach when I left, I was disgusted to have missed them…” he explained on the microphone from DAZN.
