Olympique de Marseille (OM) faced another disappointing defeat, this time against Nice with a score of 1-0, adding to their recent struggles. This defeat further diminishes their hopes of securing a podium finish and a spot in the Champions League for the 2014 season. OM currently sits in 5th place with 43 points, while Saint-Etienne is in 4th place with 48 points.
OM’s president tried to reassure supporters by emphasizing the importance of the upcoming matches and the need to gradually recover lost points. He acknowledged the poor performance of the team and expressed optimism despite the challenges they faced.
The president suggested taking stock of the situation at the end of March after several crucial matches against Reims, Rennes, Sochaux, and Ajaccio. Despite the setbacks, he remained hopeful and emphasized the competitiveness of the league, indicating that the team’s fate is not solely determined by their own performances.
