Marseille, France – Na serious gist we get for di football world as Olympique de Marseille just pour water for Lorient dem for dia last match. Dem no be small thing o, as dem flick Lorient 4-0 for Ligue 1 match wey happen last weekend.
Di match take place for Stade Velodrome, and as e start, dem don already jet off like say dem wan catch flight. Early enough, Greenwood collect penalty for min 13 and no loose guard, he banged am well. (If you know wetin dem call cool calm collected, na him be that punter.)
After di penalty wahala, na Pavard follow come score di second goal for 20th minute. For 33rd minute, Gomes increase di show with another goal, before Aguerd come seal di victory around di 93rd mark. Na wetin I call dem ‘full package’!
As dem dey glee from di win, dem dey prepare for their upcoming Champions League clash against Real Madrid, dem wey dey wait like hawks to grab any opportunity. Marsielle don dey jive say dem go fit turn di tables on Real Madrid, but e no go easy o. Last time dem play, na Real Madrid carry di win with one deadly goal spread. And now, dem dey try set to change dat narrative.
Na wetin e mean to say Real Madrid no dey carry di last look wellely through Champions League. Dem don sabi score at least three goals in all meet-up wey dem don play together, so Marseille better shine dem eye well well. Dem still dey try make history by derailing Real Madrid, but e go take more dan 90 minutes and plenty strong tactics.
As dem dey prepare for di clash, Real Madrid don flex dem muscles well as dem dey enjoy steady dia form for all competitions. Four straight wins no dey joke, especially with di likes of Vinicius and Tchouameni setting di pitch on fire.
But di reality be say something must give. Marseille form manage yarn crossaway. Dem win di first two home games, but di away jinx dey hang for dem neck, as dem don collect two back-to-back losses. This won’t help dia confidence, but na why dem dey prepare sharp for dis big one o.
No be only dem dey plan; Real Madrid don dey look to maintain dia 100% win record against Marseille. E go sweet if real fireworks dey display as both teams dey come with dem best players ready to attack, and dem no wan come play make-papa-no-die football.
So as Marseille dey gear for their biggest match of di season, we go just sit down dey popcorn, dey enjoy di show. E sweet to see how dem go tackle Real Madrid and wetin go happen for di pitch. Will dem break di jinx, or we go see di same old story? Only time go tell!
