Lille dismisses OM on penalties

What calls into question the season? Olympique de Marseille hosted Lille this Tuesday evening as part of the clash of the round of 32 of the Coupe de France. A meeting which saw the two teams keep each other in line, a goal everywhere, at the end of regulation time. Let’s head to the penalties between OM and LOSC. A session won by a score of four goals to three by Lille, carried by a Vito Mannone of the great evenings.

A crazy match, the decision on penalties

Olympique de Marseille will immediately get their foot on the ball and create the first chances of the game. From the ninth minute of play, Gabriel Gudmundsson saved a ball on his line after a missed shot from Neal Maupau which was heading towards Luis Henrique. At the start of the second quarter of an hour of play, Amir Murillo was served by Mason Greenwood before crossing. His pass is deflected by Alexsandro, very close to deceiving his own goalkeeper. A few moments later, Adrien Rabiot thought about opening the score but saw his goal canceled for a handball from Neal Maupay. In the 36th minute of play, Lille will be trapped following an offensive corner. Mason Greenwood goes off alone on the counter-attack and gets in front of Vito Mannone, who makes a world-class save. Just before half-time, Neal Maupay did it again, who had exploded the Stade Vélodrome by pushing the ball into the back of the net with his hand.

As soon as they return from the locker room, it’s Lille’s turn to experience the emotional lift. Mitchell Bakker is, in turn, guilty of a hand fault. Bruno Genesio’s men return with much better intentions and will start to find space behind the Marseille defense. In the 69th minute of play, the Mastiffs cooled down the boiling Stade Vélodrome. Jonathan David ideally serves Hakon Haraldsson in the penalty area, who deceives Jeffrey De Lange with first intention. A blow to the back of the head for the Marseille city club. In the process, Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg will once again break his teeth on Vito Mannone, author of an XXL performance. OM will subsequently lay siege to the last meters of Lille. In the 95th minute of play, the last minute of added time, Luis Henrique literally exploded the Stade Vélodrome. The Brazilian sends a mine, which hits the post before returning and finally beating Vito Mannone, saved by his post a few seconds before. So head to the penalties, like three matches in these round of 16 of the Coupe de France just before. A session won by a score of four goals to three by Lille.
