Frustration and sadness were the two emerging feelings in the Marseille locker room this Saturday, even if Roberto De Zerbi, neutralized (1-1), saw bigger things against LOSC.
One of the highlights of the weekend was undoubtedly the duel between OM and LOSC played this Saturday at the Orange Vélodrome. The fight was fierce, the chances were numerous, but neither team managed to make the difference at the final whistle (1-1). One of them, however, deserved more than the other according to Roberto De Zerbi.
“We had a great match against a great team and I don’t think that’s the frustration that prevails. The LOSC team has more experience and is therefore more advanced. They did more things together. We, I think we played even better than against Monaco at home. We would have deserved to win because the chances they created in the first half came from our errors while ours came from our qualities without resulting from individual errors. We only conceded one goal from a set piece. In the end, even if it was a very balanced match, if a team had to win, it should have been OM”he said as soon as he arrived at a press conference.
Frustration and sadness
However, frustration is very present in the Olympian ranks, particularly in the heart of the locker room: “It’s true that it’s very frustratingrecognized Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg at the microphone of the teams of BeIN Sports. It's difficult to have words to describe this match, it's annoying. We had the chances to win the match. We did it 99%, there was a bit of lucidity missing. Lille are a good team, but it’s hard to talk about it, I’m sorry, I can’t have the words”he blurted.
A few moments later, in the mixed zone, Luis Henrique had a similar reaction: “We are a little sad because of the end of the match. I think we had a great match. We must always seek victory. So we're a little frustrated, but we have to continue like this. Like I say, it was a great match on our part and it's a shame we didn't win. We must always try to score, but if it doesn't work. We must be happy to be able to strike, to impose ourselves in the match. So it’s a shame”he said in the bowels of the Stade Vélodrome this Saturday, following the draw conceded by OM against Lille (1-1).
