Igor Tudor’s l’OM fails to gain ground on PSG in Ligue 1 title race with scoreless draw against Lorient
The Match
On Saturday, 6th February, Olympique de Marseille failed to gain any ground on Paris Saint-Germain in the Ligue 1 title race with a scoreless draw against Lorient. Although Marseille dominated possession and created more chances, they were ultimately unable to find a way past Lorient’s goalkeeper, Matthieu Dreyer.
The match was a must-win for Marseille if they hoped to close the gap on PSG, who currently sit at the top of the table with a six-point lead. However, their inability to capitalize on their chances leaves them still in second place with 45 points.
OM’s Struggles Continue
This draw against Lorient is just the latest in a string of mediocre results for Olympique de Marseille. The team has struggled to find consistency this season, with disappointing performances against the likes of Lens and Nimes.
Igor Tudor, who was appointed as the team’s interim coach after the sacking of Andre Villas-Boas, has been unable to turn around the team’s fortunes. In fact, he has only managed to pick up one win in his four games in charge.
PSG’s Dominance
While Marseille continues to struggle for form, PSG has continued their dominance in Ligue 1. The team has won nine of their last ten games, conceding just one goal in the process. With a six-point lead and a game in hand, they look set to secure their seventh Ligue 1 title in the last nine seasons.
If Marseille hopes to keep their title hopes alive, they will need to start winning games and hope that PSG slip up. However, with PSG’s impressive form, that task looks increasingly difficult.
Conclusion
In conclusion, Olympique de Marseille’s draw against Lorient is a frustrating result for the team and their fans. Although they created more chances, they were unable to find the back of the net and their struggles in front of goal continue. Meanwhile, PSG’s continued dominance leaves Marseille with a mountain to climb if they hope to win the Ligue 1 title.
