Olivier Dall’Oglio is no longer on the bench but for AS Saint-Etienne, who will play next year under the leadership of Eirik Horneland, the confrontation with OM remained painful this Sunday in 32e final of the Coupe de France. Two weeks after a first setback conceded 0-2 here at Geoffroy-Guichard against the Olympians of Roberto De Zerbi, on behalf of the 14e day of L1, the Greens once again suffered the law of the Phocaeans. In even greater proportions.
Dominant from the start of the match, the Marseillais it is true quickly benefited from the expulsion of Sissoko, guilty of a bad gesture on a slightly provocative Balerdi (21e), to make the task easier. In the process, Greenwood split a wonderful volley to open the scoring (0-1, 22e). A goal followed in the first period by another nice victorious recovery, signed Rabiot this one, from the right (0-2, 34e).
Clean sheet for De Lange
A little less pressing after the break, the Rongier and others, re-accelerated the pace in the last quarter of the match. This to allow Luis Henrique (0-3, 69e) then Höjbjerg (0-4, 81e) to add to the bill. With at the opposite ends of the field a clean sheet ensured for his first by De Lange, Rulli’s understudy, well replaced for a moment by Balerdi whom the Stéphanois threatened to save the honor.
For Saint-Etienne, all that remains is the championship, and the fight to maintain it, to get under the skin this season. OM for their part will be among the 16e final of the Coupe de France in mid-January.
