Marco Verratti (PSG) at the microphone of Prime Video
“Marseille has a very aggressive game and they are having a very good championship. It was a very difficult game, especially because it came after three draws and we absolutely had to win. We had the situations to score the second goal and it would have been important to do so because we suffered until the last minute”.
Fabian Ruiz (PSG) at the Prime Video microphone
“It was a fairly intense and fairly contested game, especially in midfield. But for this clasico, we wanted to impose ourselves for the supporters and go celebrate with them at the end, as we did”.
Jordan Veretout (OM) at the microphone of Prime Video
” It’s frustrating. Now we know that in big matches like that, the details make the difference. But today we were not unworthy and we went to get them, we took risks, we also suffered opportunities but we put them in difficulty. With a little more accuracy in the last gesture or in the last pass, we could have scored. But it’s frustrating because the match is lost.
In the first half we annoyed them, we recovered a lot of balls quite high. And after 10 it’s complicated against a team like that.
AND IT’S OVER!!!
PSG won against OM with a narrow score of 1-0. A success acquired in the first period thanks to Neymar’s ninth goal this season in Ligue 1. Marseille was not unworthy but was too imprecise in the last gesture.

Opportunity for OM! (90th+1)

IT’S HALF TIME!!

PAU LOPEZ ENCORE !!! (28e)
