Too much is too much for Pierre Dréossi. The general director of the Racing Club de Lens stepped up to the plate after the match lost 1-3 this evening against Olympique de Marseille. In question, a goal, that of Rémy Labeau-Lascary for the 2-2, which was refused at the end of the game for a foul that occurred a little earlier in the match.
The Lensois CEO speaks. “We've had frustration for a while, because I still remember the victory in Lille, and today I have the penalty in Strasbourg. I have the impression that every time we score a goal or have a contentious action, I have the impression that we are now terrified of VAR. I want to say stop today, stop, because we can't take points like that from us and say nothing. I'm not upset, but I think tonight the score is 2-2. I think the Lens-Lille score is 0-0. And as a result, we ask ourselves a lot of questions. I'm not going to tell you that we should have scored goals a little faster in the first half, that's the case, but when we score, I would like us to respect the goals we score. And it repeats itself a little too much. That’s a lot since the start of the season.”
He continues. “It's nothing to cry about, but it's been a lot since the start of the season. And I think that tonight, once again, once again, one more time too many, I'm not saying that there is no foul when the referee returns to the foul, but there was a lot of fouls that weren't called. There were fouls called and the interpretations are unfortunately often controversial. I don't know what's going on, but in any case, it's clear that it's a sensation that is very, very unpleasant. Being fair is good. Being nice is good. But at some point you have to know how to say stop. And then I'm going to say stop. This does not call into question our offensive failures. So. And I don't want to hide them. But now, I think it's too much. I think we deserve as much respect as the others.”
