Alaixys Romao, the Togolese midfielder who has been a crucial part of Olympique de Marseille (OM) since his arrival in the winter, is on the verge of realizing one of his childhood dreams—playing in the UEFA Champions League. After a positive performance in the match against Bastia on Saturday, where OM secured a 2-1 victory, the prospect of Champions League qualification is becoming more attainable for Romao and his teammates.
In his statement to Provence, Romao expressed his satisfaction with the team’s performance, stating, “We found an OM team. We managed to produce some play.” Despite facing challenges in the first half, the team showed great mental strength and scored in the last ten minutes of the match. Romao highlighted the team’s patience and determination.
While Romao acknowledges that Champions League qualification is not yet certain, he stated confidently, “If it is not yet certain, we are almost in the Champions League.”
This reflects the optimism and belief within the team as they aim to secure a spot in the prestigious UEFA Champions League, marking a significant achievement for Romao and his teammates.
