Hamed Traoré: Second-Half Season Impact

OM did not provide details against Bayeux with a large 0-9 victory. Here is Hamed Traoré’s note and appreciation during this Coupe de France round of 16 match.

OM quickly took control of the debates from the kick-off, with several dangerous situations and clear territorial domination. This superiority was logically rewarded in the 13th minute by the opening score ofAngel Gomesat the conclusion of a nice collective movement initiated on the right side. The Marseillais then accelerated and made the break in the 19th minute thanks to Hamed Junior Traoreopportunistic after an error by the Norman goalkeeper. Always against, Greenwood scored the third goal in the 26th minute, well served after a quick transition. The meeting then turns into a demonstration, and Gouiri scored before the break, in the 32nd minute, to make the score 4-0. At half-time, OM were well ahead after a completely controlled first act, with overwhelming possession and very few situations conceded.

OM offensive festival

Returning from the locker room, the Olympians started again on the same basis and Greenwood scored the fifth goal in the 49th minute, after a lot of work from Gouiri. The offensive festival continued in the 55th minute with a new goal from Gouiri, bringing the score to 6-0 against the overwhelmed Normans. Despite several changes on both sides, OM continued to press and scored a seventh goal in the 80th minute thanks to a header from Egan-Riley from a corner. At the end of the match, Neal Maupay scored the eighth Olympian goal in the 86th minute, scoring his first goal of the season. Finally, Greenwood concluded the evening in style by scoring a hat-trick in the 90th minute on an offering from the right. Serious and spectacular, the Marseillais won 9-0 and qualified without trembling for the round of 16 of the Coupe de France.

Hamed Traoré’s rating: 7.5/10

His appreciation

Aligned on the left side, Hamed Traoré delivered a performance full of promise during OM’s big victory in Bayeux. After a long convalescence, the Ivorian regained all his liveliness with lightning accelerations which put the opposing defense in difficulty. Very quickly into the rhythm, he took advantage of local errors to score his first goal with the club, scored with serenity. Involved in several decisive actions, he delivered two passes to Gouiri, one of which was converted, and was also decisive on the counter leading to Greenwood’s first goal. His technique was highlighted by a left feint and a right strike on the action of Greenwood’s second goal. Very active and restless, Traoré knew how to carry the ball and create differences on the offensive level throughout the match. Its collective impact and its ability to combine with its partners have been constant. Even if one of his passes did not find the net, his performance shows that he is gaining strength and regaining his best level.

Media notes

Rating of Provence 7/10

The perfect evening to gain strength, after his very long convalescence. Poor Quentin Mayette, whose throat must still be burning after being swept by so many drafts, would have preferred that the ex-Auxerrois remained on the bench. Lightning acceleration, a calm goal (19) and only (because of Gouiri) a decisive pass (32).

Rating of Maxifoot 8/10 Lined up on the left side to catch Paixao, who was resting, the Ivorian made a good copy. Immediately in the right tempo to create differences on the offensive level, the Olympique de Marseille winger took advantage of errors from Lecanu and Lemasson to score his first goal with OM. Involved in the counter which led to Greenwood’s first achievement, the former Auxerre player delivered two caviars to Gouiri, who wasted the first before converting the second. After the break, he was still just enough to set up Gouiri for Greenwood’s second goal. A great impact.
Rating of 90Min 7/10 Hamed Traoré did not tremble with a left feint and a right shot on the second goal. The Ivorian served Gouiri perfectly after half an hour of play without it ending with a goal. The former Naples player was particularly active and moving to carry the ball.
