Sunday evening, Olympique de Marseille lost (2-0) on the pitch of OGC Nice, in the closing match of the 19th day of Ligue 1. Established by Roberto De Zerbi in the central hinge, Lilian Brassier lived a nightmarish evening.

The former Stade Brestois player is clearly responsible for opening the score. He procrastinated before having the ball stolen following good pressing from Evann Guessand. On the Aiglons' second achievement, the Olympian number 20 was this time beaten in the air.

Brassier at OM, it already smells like the end

On social networks, many Internet users criticized this mediocre performance by Lilian Brassier. Some pointed out that OM had only taken one point in the five matches in which he started this season. Others are simply calling for his departure during the last days of the winter transfer window.

At a press conference, Roberto De Zerbi did not want to overwhelm him too much. “Maybe he missed his game. But who is not mistaken? He made a mistake, but not because he was asked to play the game. He made a mistake. As long as I'm here, the central defenders will have to play like that. If they don’t like it, they will go to the bench or to the stands”declared the Italian technician.
