Marseille ensures against Chauvigny

Too accustomed in its recent history to being scared or even falling against amateur teams, OM this time secured the blow in a meeting that could have turned into a trap, and joined the knockout stages of the Coupe de France without trembling.

Against the Viennese of Chauvigny (N3), the hardest part was, as often against these low and grouped blocks, to score. OM confiscated the ball (80% possession), but had to wait half an hour of play to take cover.

Milik, after missing a ready-made goal in front of the chauvinist goalkeeper at the reception of a corner (3rd), set the sights nicely. On a good cross halfway up Luan Peres, the Pole released an acrobatic recovery from the unstoppable left (30th).

Author of several parades, the goalkeeper of Chauvigny Caillaud could not do anything either on the second Marseille goal. If he sometimes (too) slowed down the game of OM, Gerson, found by Saliba in depth, gave caviar for Under who finished in power in the area (0-2, 41st).

Some fears in defense

In an unusual 4-4-2, the Olympians sometimes played pointlessly with fire defensively. Their few low ball losses were not exploited by the Viennese, who fell from Le Havre (L2) in December but for whom the march was high against the 2nd in Ligue 1.

Offensively, despite a certain efficiency, the site remains open for Jorge Sampaoli. His players sometimes lacked spontaneity, like Kamara who preferred to cross for… no one, while Guendouzi had put him into orbit (55th).

In a second period managed at low tempo, Harit (0-3, 80th) came to deliver the last blow by taking advantage of a missed exit from Caillaud.

Unlike last year, where Le Canet-en-Roussillon (N3) had surprised him at the same time, Marseille was serious and will be at the rendezvous of the knockout stages of the Coupe de France.
