Sunday, Olympique Lyonnais and Olympique de Marseille will face each other in the shock of the 32nd day of Ligue 1. Before this poster, the Rhone coach Laurent Blanc said, with humor, all the good he thinks of the work performed by his Phoenician counterpart Igor Tudor. The two men had had the opportunity to meet as opponents during their playing careers, especially on the lawns of Serie A.
“What is certain is that he does not train as he played. Tudor, he was rough on the pitch, slipped the Cvenol this Friday in a press conference. But he is a very good coach, he requires real involvement, overstepping of functions… It’s beautiful.”
More generally, the 1998 world champion praised OM’s style of play. “They’re one of the best teams in the league, in every way. They constantly change shape, it’s fun to watch, athletically it’s very strong. Their game is total, it requires a lot of involvement. Marseille made some great matches,” concluded the Lyon technician.
