No time for party.
After the victory against Sturm Graz (3-2) and the provisional eighth place in the Champions League acquired at the end of the day, LOSC had to refocus on his next objective: a trip to Marseille. This arrives on Saturday, which offers little recovery time for Jonathan David and his teammates, who are three points behind the Olympians.
An agreement with OM and the broadcaster to play on Sunday
At the end of the C1 meeting, Olivier Létang, Lille president, assured The Team that his « boys will be ready » for this new deadline. Even if he swears that « the idea is above all not to complain »he admits to wondering « questions about the fairness of the competition, the health of the players and the quality of the show ».
Note that Paris Saint-Germain and Brest played in the Champions League on Tuesday, but have their championship match scheduled for Sunday. « I wrote to the authorities, to the Federation and the League because we must protect football. I'm not just talking about LOSC today. To tell you the truth, I had the authorization, the validation from the president of Olympique de Marseille to play on Sunday. We had permission from a broadcaster to play on Sunday. And despite everything, we find ourselves less than 72 hours from a C1 match. Everyone needs to look at themselves »underlined Olivier Létang.
Even without wanting to complain, he still manages a little.
