Despite the draw against Lyon, and the infirmary which is always full, Genesio has not lost his sense of humor. Asked about the cases of Angel Gomes and Osame Sahraoui, victims of blows to the calf and ankle on Friday evening, the LOSC coach said: “ I think that for them, it should be fine by Tuesday… Well, I hope otherwise I’m going to have to get back into shape, and it’s not going to be easy ».
“Adductor pain” for Meunier
Genesio will not return to the field on Tuesday against Juventus Turin but he will have to find a solution to occupy the right lane of his defense. Already deprived for many months of Tiago Santos, victim of a ruptured cruciate ligament in his right knee, LOSC has in fact seen the other specialist in the position, Thomas Meunier, leave due to injury. On a defensive run, the Belgian “felt pain in his adductor”. The scene quite clearly suggests a breakdown, and Genesio has not made any great mysteries: “ We will wait for the exams but it is already more than complicated for Tuesday against Juventus Turin ».
André Gomes missed
André Gomes would not have participated in this match in any case, since he is not qualified for the Champions League. But the Portuguese was already the big last minute absentee from the match against Lyon. A sore hamstring felt during the last training of the week deprived Genesio of a weight solution in the midfield: “ Its technical quality would have helped us a lot, that’s obvious. We’ll hope it won’t be too long ».
