Pablo Longoria didn't wait for DAZN to invite him onto its debrief set, he went there himself to complain after the draw against Strasbourg (1-1). In question, an action in the 82nd minute. Jonathan Rowe collapsed in the area while Guéla Doué, behind him, put his hand on the Marseillais' back. Enough to unbalance the OM attacker in the area? It's difficult to be absolutely certain. The president of OM is: “It's a scandal, there is a hand behind the back on a big scoring opportunityhe raged. I don't understand, until when will this continue?“
To the question: “Do you think there is something against OM?“The answer is clear:”Yes, clearly, yes. Why does the VAR not react?he raged. The defender doesn't play the ball, I don't understand. That's too much in too many matches. I don't know what we're looking for. Do they want to penalize us? I don't understand. We must say basta! There have been too many decisions against us since the start of the season.“A rant reminiscent of those of Mehdi Benatia this season, as recently as last Tuesday in the Coupe de France.
They made 1000 fouls, we have to put reds and the referee didn't whistle

“It's starting to be a bit much, isn't it?was also indignant, a Leonardo Balerdi who was nervous from the first to the last minute. There were borderline situations, we try to stay calm. But it was a clear penalty. They made 1000 fouls, we had to give reds and the referee didn't blow the whistle. The reds and the penalties are necessarily against us.“Even if the Argentinian forgets to say that OM equalized… on a penalty.
Obviously, the Alsatians did not have the same vision of things and Roberto De Zerbi did not want to argue. Still, between the rants of its leaders and its press releases, Marseille has been cultivating the idea of a form of conspiracy for several months. An attitude which avoids looking at OM's weaknesses, particularly those seen in the first half this Sunday.
