Olympique de Marseille snatched a precious victory against Monaco this Sunday (2-1) in Ligue 1. For this second success at the Vélodrome this season, Roberto De Zerbi’s men delivered a great performance, like a Valentin Rongier.
Starting for the second consecutive time, the French midfielder, despite an error on the opening score for Monaco, was praised by his coach, Roberto De Zerbi. The latter did not fail to underline the importance of the former Nantes player in the team.
A profitable tactical choice for De Zerbi
“Rongier has a lot of qualities in the game. He has unique characteristics in this team and brings us defensive balance”said the Italian technician.
De Zerbi explained that his choice to let Rongier play the entire match was not random:
“I could have thought of replacing him and bringing Rabiot down further to force the match by adding an attacker. But I didn’t do it because it brings balance, but also play. And that’s what I want: to play. I want us to build with the ball on the ground and succeed in believing in what we are doing. »
