The Lensois coach, Will Still, was particularly upset following the setback conceded by his team against OM (1-3).
While it remained on two home victories against Marseille, Lens lost this Saturday against the Phocéens. The Northerners fell to 1-3 after conceding three goals in the second half.
Will Still, the Sang et Or coach, had a lot of trouble digesting this hitch. Not because of the performance of his flock, but because of the face shown by the Marseillais. For him, the latter showed vice and influenced the referee in his decision-making.
Still doesn’t digest
“You don’t have to look from noon to two p.m. I’m told that at half-time there is an impossible cinema in the tunnel to put pressure on the referee. Oddly in the second half, there are a lot of things happening that aren’t very clear. It happens too often. As a football supporter, the referee has an important role to play. Today, it’s difficult not to talk about refereeing from the moment Lens equalizes and makes it 2-2.lamented Still at a press conference.
Still was not the only Lens official to raise his voice after the meeting. This was also the case for Pierre Dréossi, the general director. “We’ve had frustration for a while. I still remember the Lille victory. I have the impression that every time we score a goal or there is a contentious action, we are terrified of VAR. I want to say stop today. We can’t take points like that from us and say nothing. I think today the score is 2-2. The Lens-Lille score is 0-0. Once again, once too many. I don’t think Lens is being targeted, that would be paranoid. » The League’s disciplinary committee may not really appreciate these barely disguised allusions to the conspiracy.
