Injured by a projectile in Marseille, Ambre Godillon says stop

His bruise under his right eye says a lot about the violence of the blow received. During OM's defeat against Auxerre (1-3) at the Vélodrome, Friday evening at the opening of the 11^e day of Ligue 1, Ambre Godillon, who was officiating her job as a “pitchside” journalist as usual, received a projectile – an electronic cigarette – in the face.

Olympique de Marseille immediately apologized to the DAZN journalist. And after carrying out its investigation, the Marseille club announced that the projectile fell from the top of a stand and accidentally landed in the eye of the former PSG TV presenter after slipping on a tarpaulin. An accident thesis which does not convince everyone, starting with the main person concerned.

“I want us to move on and talk about football again”

“I would like to point out that a throw is not accidental. The story of the tarpaulin, if we want to drown and tell the storytelling we want, of an object that bounces… The fact remains that I was between the two sidelines and that the jet came between these two benches sideline, she explains. And it wasn't by the Holy Spirit that he got there. The tarpaulin, I thank it for being there to slow down this object. But in any case “accidental”, I would like us to measure these words and just know that the person who must apologize in the story is not me”wanted to clarify Ambre Godillon on the L'Equipe channel, she who now finds herself affected by “a wave of cyberharassment… A priori, according to some, I am supposed to apologize because it was accidental. »

The 35-year-old journalist now wants to turn the page on this sad incident. “ I want us to move on and talk about football again. The truce will do good », she wrote on her X account. If the LFP did not react to this incident, Ambre Godillon was able to count on the support of her profession, which unanimously condemned this new sad event which tarnishes the image of French football.
