LIGUE 1-MARSEILLE: PAYET OPTIMISTIC FOR A EUROPEAN PLACE
Ahead of Marseille’s upcoming match against Montpellier in the 33rd day of Ligue 1, Dimitri Payet expressed optimism about Marseille’s chances of securing a European place. Payet, reflecting on recent performances, highlighted the importance of maintaining focus and determination towards their end-of-season objectives.
“After the match against Ajaccio, despite the challenges, we managed to secure a victory. Our focus remains on our objectives for the end of the season,” stated Payet, emphasizing the team’s resilience.
Acknowledging the remaining challenges ahead, Payet emphasized the significance of securing points in the upcoming matches. While acknowledging the difficulty of securing a third-place finish, Payet stressed that securing a European place would be the minimum expectation for the club.
“We still have important matches ahead of us, and it’s crucial to gather points,” Payet continued. “While third place remains mathematically possible, securing a place in the European Cup is our primary objective. It won’t be easy, but it’s the least we can aim for.”
