Gennaro Gattuso, the OM coach, did not want to overwhelm Vitinha after his missed opportunity against Monaco.
Marseille failed to win like Monaco on Saturday evening. The Phocaeans had a draw, even though they finished the game with two more men. An annoying incident but one that could have been avoided if Vitinha had converted his opportunity at the very end of the match.
Gattuso doesn’t blame his team
The Portuguese missed the inevitable, causing great dismay at the Vélodrome. Despite this, Gennaro Gattuso did not seek to accuse him after the game. “Vitinha’s opportunity? I think we should especially congratulate the Monaco team. There were ten of them left. But that’s the game. We have to move forward. I regret that he didn’t manage to score. But we delivered a great performance”he confided on the Canal+ channel.
The Italian coach also sought to congratulate his team for the efforts made: “If we were to win? In life, I too would like to do many things, but there is reality. We lost, then we held our heads high. Respect to Monaco. And we deserved better as a result.”
Finally, when asked if he felt that his team was in bad shape at the moment, Gattuso replied: “It’s a difficult time, but I don’t like to talk about bad luck. It’s us, it’s several matches that we have these difficulties. But today we were unlucky. There are regrets but we must continue. »
