TOPS
We take the same and start again. Already decisive on the only goal of the match against Brest (1-1), last Friday, the two friends did it again with the opening score for Rémois. The Japanese crossed for the Zimbabwean in the area. It’s finally Mbemba, who cuts the cross into his own cage, but that doesn’t matter, Munetsi was just behind to hinder the Olympian defender. The Reims midfielder had already distinguished himself by opening the scoring in the 5th minute with a beautiful forward projection. A goal ultimately refused. The winger made the Olympians dizzy throughout the match to pull off a gala match.
We could have cited the remarkable entry of Reda Khadra, in all the good moves in Reims of the second half, but his goalkeeper took his place. As much as during his face-to-face victory with Luiz Henrique. A parade worthy of meeting his people. Applied and exciting. The Stade de Reims goalkeeper, criticized several times this season, was able to reassure his family when necessary, particularly at the end of the match. He was also excellent, against Ismaila Sarr, in the first period to counter, with his head, the Senegalese’s attempt.
FLOPS
Going for a place in Europe is worth it. Olympians tend to forget this. This Wednesday evening, in Reims, Jean-Louis Gasset’s men did not show the necessary character to achieve a positive result. With a diminished Aubameyang and burnt out players, Marseille did not know how to put in the effort necessary to get something, at the Auguste-Delaune stadium, despite a few opportunities. With three points behind, OM must therefore absolutely win against Le Havre, this Sunday evening, at the Stade Océane and hope for a defeat by Lens or Lyon to secure European evenings next year. Even the entries of Moumbagna and Luis Henrique did not bring much, even if the Brazilian showed himself.
He is the Marseillais who ran the least this Wednesday evening on Auguste Delaune’s lawn, but he did so with his strength. Affected by gastric problems for a few days, the Gabonese started, but should not have. We understand the desire of Jean-Louis Gasset, who sees him capable, like everyone else, of lightning, despite a very lower output. But he suffered on the pitch, always a step below his partners, who were not very flamboyant either. Jean-Louis Gasset is not exempt from all criticism for not having released the Gabonese.
