Alaixys Romao’s quick integration into Olympique de Marseille’s starting lineup, even amid the Togolese campaign at the 2013 Africa Cup of Nations (CAN), is highlighted in the description. The Togolese defensive midfielder played in a match against Evian for the 24th day of Ligue 1 shortly after joining Marseille.
Despite the challenging circumstances, including the physical toll of returning from South Africa and adapting to different climates and playing conditions, Romao expressed his commitment to giving his best for the team. The match against Evian ended in a disappointing draw of 1-1 for Marseille.
Romao’s ability to step into a starting role shortly after joining Marseille reflects the confidence that the technical staff has in him. It also signifies the urgency and importance of his contribution to the team, especially during a critical phase of the season.
While Romao acknowledged the physical challenges, his willingness to adapt and give his best suggests a determined and committed attitude, traits that will likely be important as he continues to play a key role for Olympique de Marseille.
