As a Dantesque match at Anfield approached, LOSC was still in reduced numbers in training this Monday, the last session organized at the Domaine de Luchin before flying to England.
It was a session like no other this Monday on the lawns of the Domaine de Luchin, such was the appetite of the Mastiffs. As they had been the day before the reception of Real Madrid, it was last October, they appeared eager for a fight, impatient at the idea of encountering adversity as fierce as Liverpool, a team considered to be the most successful on the continent this season. It is with this state of mind, a certain concentration despite the barbs here and there, that Bruno Genesio’s men approached their final session in the North.
This took place with a small group, without the long-term injured as well as Matias Fernandez-Pardo et Edon Zhegrova. Despite recent statements made by Olivier Létang, who announced a potential return for the reception of OGC Nice, the Kosovar was largely absent from the fifteen minutes of training open to the press this Monday. Ethan Mbappé was present with the collective, no doubt partially as he has been for several days.
-The Lille team began their session with warm-ups without a ball, before continuing with an exercise centered on a passing game. The technical staff, Bruno Genesio included, served as a support point. The latter also had a big smile throughout these fifteen minutes, concluded with the usual toro. The Mastiffs are still far from the gloomy weather of Liverpool, black clouds and rain. They are getting closer, however, with kick-off scheduled for this Tuesday at 9 p.m. at Anfield. The appointment, the seventh day of the Champions League, is made.
Those absent: Edon Zhegrova, Nabil Bentaleb, Samuel Umtiti, Tiago Santos et Matias Fernandez-Pardo.
