Pierre-Emile Højbjerg, OM midfielder, expressed his pride after the Olympians’ success against Nantes on Sunday.

Olympique de Marseille carried out a great operation by winning in Nantes (2-1) this Sunday in Ligue 1. After their defeat against Paris Saint-Germain (3-0) last weekend, the Phocéens had keen to recover and return to victory.

Roberto De Zerbi’s team quickly took the lead, with a goal from Neal Maupay in the 20th minute. But the Canaries, far from being defeated, found the resources to come back to the score before half-time through Tino Kadewere. But in the second half, OM regained the advantage thanks to Mason Greenwood, author of a precise cross shot from outside the area.

“We got back in place this week”

At the final whistle, Pierre-Emile Højbjerg did not hide his satisfaction with the reaction of his team, who managed to avoid the Nantes trap. ” Gorgeous. It was a very hard, intense match. Congratulations to Nantes who played a good match and caused us problems,” commented the Danish defensive midfielder.

“I am very proud of the team, of the way we got back together this week to bring back the victory we wanted. We play with risks, we take responsibility with the ball, sometimes it goes behind our backs. We assume, we still have things to improve. Given the attitude and fighting spirit, I am very proud to be with this team,” added the former Tottenham player.

With the defeat of AS Monaco against Angers (1-0) on Friday, the Marseillais regain the place of runner-up to Paris Saint-Germain.
