With 29 points, the Canaries find themselves six points behind the third-placed Monaco. Togolese international Serge Gakpé, the Nantes striker, sees this accomplishment as a commendable move for the team. Gakpé emphasizes the team’s ambition and solidarity, citing their determination during the match.
“We came here to play hard and get past them. We suffered in the second half, but we gritted our teeth and that was enough,” stated Gakpé in an interview with beIN Sport.
Looking ahead, if Michel Der Zakarien’s team performs well in their upcoming match against Toulouse in the 18th round, they may entertain ambitions beyond maintaining their current position in the standings. The victory against Marseille has evidently boosted Nantes’ confidence and aspirations for the remainder of the season.
