OM: Marseille humiliates Veretout on social networks

With a numerical advantage from the 5th minute and despite having taken the lead, Olympique Lyonnais suffered a frustrating defeat against Olympique de Marseille (2-3) during a stunning match this Sunday. Jordan Veretout, the Lyon midfielder, did not hide his disappointment after this poor performance. “When you play eleven against ten and you lead, you have to know how to kill the match, take security. It’s hard, because in the second half, they came into our camp three times to score three goals. It’s a defeat that hurts. We don’t have the right, it’s a professional error”, reacted Veretout, who arrived this summer from Marseille, visibly affected by the turn of events. Despite his first start against his former club, the evening turned out to be bitter for him and the Lyonnais.

OM makes fun of Veretout

Veretout has also been the subject of mockery on social media, particularly from his former club. The official Olympique de Marseille account did not fail to sting the former Marseille player by posting a video showing him being dribbled by Greenwood, accompanied by humorous sound effects. This practice, now common in the communication of professional clubs, aims to tease opponents in a lighter, but sometimes acerbic way. For Veretout, this situation adds a layer of humiliation to an already difficult match.
