If he considers that his team had a good match, Gennaro Gattuso suffered the blow after the elimination of Olympique Marseille in Rennes on Sunday.
New disappointment for Olympique de Marseille. Eight days after having had to concede the draw (1-1) against Strasbourg in Ligue 1, the Ciel et Blanc had to say goodbye to the Coupe de France. After opening the score, OM finally lost on penalties (1-1, 9 tab to 8).
Questioned after the meeting, Gennaro Gattuso did not hide his disappointment even if he said he was satisfied with his troops. “ There is a lot of sadness and disillusionment this evening, but you have to tell yourself that it’s football, he confided. We knew that our team had not won the cup since 1989. We are sorry, it is a lot of sadness, but these are the vagaries of football. We still had a good match, we fought. Unfortunately, these are penalties, and this is how it can happen during these sessions.»
The second most successful team in history in the Coupe de France, Olympique de Marseille has not lifted the trophy since 1989 and its victory against Monaco (4-3).
