The stunning declaration of Mbemba after the defeat of OM

 The stunning declaration of Mbemba after the defeat of OM:


After the defeat against Tottenham, Chancel Mbemba admitted a terrible mistake made by the OM players at the end of the match.

Olympique de Marseille experienced enormous disappointment on Tuesday evening at the Stade Vélodrome. Against Tottenham, the Olympians had a superb first period, rewarded by a goal from Chancel Mbemba in stoppage time allowing them to be virtually qualified at the break. But Igor Tudor's men sank in the second act, conceding the equalizer by Clément Lenglet (54th) before taking a terrible blow from Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg in the 95th, eliminating them from all European competitions.

Marseille players "did not know"

Because if a victory was the only possible way to reach the round of 16, a draw would have allowed the Marseillais to be transferred to the Europa League, which will not ultimately be the case. But at the time of the Spur's counter-attack on this last action, the non-reaction of the Riviera players shocked, giving the impression that they were not aware that they could still finish 3rd by keeping this draw. An impression confirmed by evening scorer Chancel Mbemba in the mixed zone after the match. "We on the pitch, we didn't know (that they were 3rd). But on the bench, they knew, it was a lack of communication. Because we had the rage to push until the end but it's a lack of communication and an error on our part, "said the Congolese defender.

There was too much noise in the stadium:

For his part, Igor Tudor explains that he "asked the players not to go too far forward, not to become unbalanced" but that "there was a lot of noise (in the stands), that did not allow explain it well to the guys”.

A goal that ends up costing the Olympians dearly, who will not experience a European spring and who conclude their Champions League campaign in last place in their group for the third consecutive time (after 2013 and 2020). They must therefore now try to resume their march forward in the league after four unsuccessful matches, with the reception of Lyon on Sunday.
