Gauthier Gallon tried to destabilize several Marseille players during the penalty shootout between Rennes and OM. Which seems to have worked with Samuel Gigot.
Sunday evening, Stade Rennais eliminated Olympique de Marseille in the round of 16 of the Coupe de France. The two teams went back to back (1-1) at the end of regulation time, before the Breton club won after a crazy penalty shootout (9-8).
During this, only one player missed his attempt: Samuel Gigot. Before his shot crashed onto the crossbar, the Marseille defender was destabilized by Gauthier Gallon. “I tried to get into his head by saying that he was captain of OM, that he could handle the pressure, that he was easy, flat-footed… In the end, he winked at me “I took him to the right, he forced the gesture a little, so we’ll say that I won my duel.”confided the usual understudy of Steve Mandanda to the microphone of France Bleu Armoriqueat the end of the meeting.
Gallon on the words exchanged with Clauss and Gigot before their TAB: “Clauss I know him a little, I tried to tease him. Gigot I tried to get into his head by saying that he was captain of OM , that he could handle the pressure, that he was easy, a little flat foot..”

Previously, Gallon had tried to embarrass Jonathan Clauss. In vain. “Clauss I know him a little, I tried to tease him”, he confided about the right side. Thanks to this qualification, Gauthier Gallon and his teammates will travel to the Bonal stadium on February 7. They will face Sochaux (National) in the round of 16.
