The anticipation and tension building up to the grand clasico between Olympique de Marseille (OM) and Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) are palpable, especially with Alaixys Romao, who recently signed with OM, likely to start in the upcoming match.
Romao, who has previous experience at the Parc des Princes during his time with Lorient, reminisces about a past encounter. He recalls playing against PSG on the first day of Ligue 1, highlighting the excitement surrounding the match, especially with the arrival of Zlatan Ibrahimovic. Despite going 2-0 up at halftime, Romao’s team faced challenges, particularly due to an injury to Écuelé-Manga, and PSG managed to come back into the game.
Romao mentions the lack of bonding in PSG’s first match, indicating that, despite their firepower, there were opportunities for the opposing team. It’s a reminder that in football, especially in high-stakes clashes like the clasico, anything can happen, and teams must be prepared for unexpected turns.
With Romao likely to be part of the starting lineup for OM, his experience and insights could prove valuable in approaching the game with a solid strategy. Football fans can look forward to an intense and exciting match between two of French football’s most prominent clubs scheduled for this Sunday at 8 p.m.
