Will Still was quite upset this Saturday, after Lens' defeat at home against OM (1-3). Furious with his players, from whom he asked for “collective and individual awareness”, the Sang et Or coach castigated the behavior of the Marseillais at the break.
“You don't have to look for noon to two p.m. I'm told that at half-time there's an impossible cinema in the tunnel to put pressure on the referee. Strangely in the second half, there's a lot of things happening that aren't very clear. It happens too often. As a football fan, the referee has an important role to play. Today, it's hard not to talk about refereeing. from the moment Lens equalizes and makes 2-2,” Will Still railed at a press conference.

I have the impression that every time Every time we score a goal or there is a contentious action, we are terrified of VAR. I want to say stop, today we can't take points like that and not. say nothing. I think that today the score is 2-2 The score of Lens-Lille is 0-0 Once again, once too many. would be paranoid.”
