The Olympique de Marseille played its penultimate pre-season 2025/2026 friendly match against FC Seville, ahead of 63,000 spectators. The team, led by Roberto De Zerbi, presented a revised composition including Facundo Medina. The game started on a good score for OM, with a Greewood lead goal from the 25th minute. However, despite several frank occasions, notably with Höjbjerg and Oumi, the Sevilla FC equalized thanks to a nice wound of Sowa in the 38th minute.
During the second half, OM continued to dominate the game, although it failed to realize its opportunities. De Zerbi made several changes in the composition, including players like Aubameyang, Haritou and Maupay. The pace of the game decreased slightly towards the end, and a few moments of tension marked the last game, including Ruulis’ risky dribble attempt near his own surface.
The game ended on a parity score, 1-1. Although OM has demonstrated good play phases, the team still appears to be suffering physically. De Zerbi continues to rotate its staff in preparation for a month of September in competition. This friendly match allowed us to evaluate the different options and prepare for the season ahead.
