The Olympique de Marseille achieved a convincing victory against Lorient (4-0) on the fourth day of Ligue 1, a success that enabled Roberto De Zerbi’s team to relaunch its season. The game, dominated from the first half, highlighted a dynamic game and a collective mastery appreciated by the Italian coach. De Zerbi highlighted the enthusiasm and quality of the game proposed, while expressing some regret about the late recruitment of the team, despite the arrival of talented players like Medina, Aguard and Pavard. This victory reinforces OM’s confidence before the next crucial shock against Real Madrid in the Champions League.

Roberto De Zerbi praised the performance of his team, highlighting the continuous improvement and ability to apply his game philosophy focused on possession and defensive intensity. He particularly highlighted Benjamin Pavard’s rapid integration, who scored his first game and was satisfied with his adaptation to the team. Pavard stressed the importance of the analysis videos and the coach’s willingness to react quickly to the loss of the ball. He also expressed his ambition to make progress and stressed his warm welcome to the club.

The arrival of Benjamin Pavard already seems to have a positive impact on the Marseille team, both defensively and offensively. Its rapid integration and professionalism suggest a major role for De Zerbi as OM prepares to face a series of important championship and Champions League matches. The victory against Lorient is therefore another step towards the consolidation of an ambitious team determined to make itself one of the great ones.
