Slapped at home by PSG, OM came back down to earth after a euphoric week where Marseille began to dream of bringing down the rival. A dream fueled by the recent declarations of Roberto De Zerbi who proclaimed his desire to play for the title. But for Patrick Vieira, it would be better for the Marseille club to lower its ambitions.

For several days, the conflagration had been total in the Phocaean city with a PSG in decline on the European scene and a ABOUT totally reinvigorated after a nightmarish and trying season.

“A questioning of the objectives of the season”
« The defeat is deserved. Afterwards, it is in the content that there is a big disappointment. We expected a Marseille team to be a little more valiant and which would pose more problems for PSG. They still took quite a beating, waking up will be very complicated. This means that there will certainly be a questioning of the objectives for the season », Declared the 98 world champion on the microphone of DAZN. The former player d’Arsenal advises to loon to concentrate on European markets.
“We may have seen them too beautiful”

We saw the difference between these two teams », added Patrick Vieira. A goal well within reach of the Olympians who, unlike their main competitors, have the advantage of only playing once a week.
