Neal Maupay, OM striker, attacked Nicolas Pallois, Nantes defender, on social networks for a remark about his small size.
Neal Maupay did it again. The OM striker, a regular trash-talker, paid Nicolas Pallois after Marseille's victory in Nantes (1-2), Sunday at the end of the 10th day of Ligue 1. The former Nice player and Saint-Etienne opened the scoring for his team by escaping Pallois, his direct opponent, to victoriously recover a cross from Jonathan Rowe (24th). On the lookout on the surface, he is also on the lookout on social networks.
“He’s short on legs.”
A few hours after the meeting, he reacted to a publication reporting mockery from Pallois about his size. Maupay posted a video of English boxer Tyson Fury calling his opponent an idiot. A troll which visibly echoes the comments made by Nicolas Pallois on DAZN after the meeting on the difficulty of marking a small attacker.
“The coach (Antoine Kombouaré, Editor’s note) asked us to follow him as soon as he dropped out,” explained the defender. “Afterwards, he is 1.60m (1.71m in reality), he is short on his legs. He is a very good player. On the goal, he is behind my back, I see him but I think that there also has Nico (Cozza) who is close to him Basically, we have to try to cut off the action from the start, there are four for the center, that's a shame, but it's a good goal. .”
The declaration therefore tickled Maupay, who had already enjoyed his small personal victory in the mixed zone when he was questioned about his very involved duel with the Nantes player. “It’s okay, you’d have to ask him, but for me it was,” he said. “I just heard on TV that he said I was small. But hey, there's no point in being big if you just want to get moving. For me, it was a quiet evening .”
