The tension is not completely falling back to Marseille. While preparing the reception of Nantes, Sunday evening at the end of the 24e

Ligue 1 day, OM is still disrupted by its last trip to Auxerre, which ended with a heavy defeat (0-3) and violent accusations from leaders against the arbitral body.

If the LFP disciplinary committee has since decided on the fate of Pablo Longoria, suspended 15 matches for having spoken of

“Corruption”the file is not entirely closed. On Friday, at a press conference, Roberto de Zerbi was thus invited to react once again to this soap opera, deplorable for the image of the Marseille club.

De Zerbi persists and signs

The Italian coach, who wanted to support his president, now wishes to turn the page. “Longoria's suspension?” I'm still close to people in my family. They are part of my family, like my players and all the people of this club ”he said, in remarks relayed by RMC Sport.

And “RDZ” to make a strong decision:

“This is the last time I want to talk about the referees until the end of my adventure at OM. Threats have been made to the referee (Mr. Stinat), his tires were punctured, I am sorry and I express all my solidarity to his loved ones. Everything I said after the match, I confirm it. I believe in the good faith of referees. »»

“They have penalized us several times”

The Olympian coach still repeated that, according to him, the arbitration “Was not serene” Last Saturday on the lawn of Father-deschamps and that there was

“Slowing errors”. “We have not lost because of him but his role was decisivehe added.

I believe in the good faith of referees but they have penalized us several times. »»

This instruction was also given to its players. “I told them not to talk about refereeing anymore and no longer make the Var's gesture, to think about the match for 90 minuteshe said. The idea is that everyone does what they have to do. We have a very important goal, which is to bring OM back to the Champions League. Nothing has to keep us away from this goal. »»
