According to Africa Top Sports.com, Marseille has undergone significant challenges in their recent match.
Playing at home, OM found themselves trailing Bordeaux by a two-goal margin before managing to salvage a draw. José Anigo, temporarily taking over from Elie Baup, can breathe a sigh of relief, avoiding potentially disappointing Christmas celebrations.
The goals for Marseille were scored by J. Romao in the 73rd minute and A. Gignac in the 74th minute. On the Bordeaux side, Jussiê found the net in the 34th minute, followed by N. Maurice-Belay in the 66th minute.
Currently occupying the 6th position in the standings with 29 points, Marseille is closely followed by Bordeaux in the 4th position with 31 points. Meanwhile, PSG, leading the table with 43 points, has the opportunity to extend their lead as they play against Lille later in the evening, especially after Monaco’s recent defeat against Valenciennes.
Despite the challenges, Marseille’s president, Vincent Labrune, maintains his confidence in Anigo. He acknowledges the disappointing performance in both the Champions League and the championship but expresses optimism about the team’s improvement in mentality. Labrune states, “He is the right man to manage the emergency situation we are in. There will be as long as it takes, that is to say the time for us to find the coach capable of carrying out the Olympian project in the long term.”
Labrune reassures that there won’t be any rash decisions, expressing confidence in the team and players. Anigo, in response, mentions that the president has assured him of his presence until January 1 for the resumption and that they will be in constant contact during the break.
