OM – PSG: Marseille files a complaint against its supporters

At the end of the clasico Sunday evening in Marseille, Dimitri Payet had slipped: “I am disillusioned, I do not understand, we know that we are being observed, we need real sanctions, we can no longer wait for someone to be injured”. The Marseille strategist referred to the many projectiles thrown at the Parisians during the corners but also during the meeting. To make matters worse, a spectator had even managed to enter the lawn and run to Lionel Messi that he could have attacked before being overpowered by security.

For a club under the threat of a point withdrawal since the unrest in Angers, the case is problematic. While waiting for the disciplinary committee to rule on these events – the file will be studied this Wednesday and a decision announced on November 3 – Marseille leaders are showing firmness. “We have made efforts, I think we are on the right track,” said Jacques Cardoze, communication director of the Marseille club, on RTL, Monday evening. Those who are troublemakers, we file a complaint against them, there is no question that there is no sanction ”.

Sampaoli also condemns the incidents

Jacques Cardoze adds: “The match was exceptional in a very beautiful atmosphere, overheated, overexcited. It should be remembered that the suspended sentence was imposed for an invasion of land in Angers, which we condemn. For the point to be revoked, the case must be similar. To my knowledge, Sunday, there was no land invasion so for me there is no debate. “The leader recognizes that” of course, everything did not go very well, but we must also put ourselves in a context. This is the first time in two years that a stadium has been filled with 65,000 people and maybe even more ”.

This Tuesday at a press conference, on the eve of the match to be replayed between Nice and OM on behalf of the 3rd day of Ligue 1, Jorge Sampaoli, the Argentine manager also reacted to the incidents that took place during the clasico . “My perspective of what the commission can do is not very clear because I don’t know the rules,” he said first. I do not know how to make an incident responsible in a public sports arena, but I consider that what happened against PSG is very serious, just as serious as what happened in the other stadiums. But it is difficult for me to judge, the commission knows better than me what to do. “
