Olympique Marseille coach Erik Gerets was surprised his team had played badly in the second half. 'We lacked a little bit of freshness and PSV were the better team. Marseille collapsed after conceding the opening goal. All in all, we put in a poor team display and made mistakes', concluded Gerets in Eindhoven.
'Marseille collapsed after opening goal'
'I am surprised we started the second half badly and sloppily. PSV were tactically well-disciplined and their centre-backs defended well, but we had some opportunities on the wings. We lacked a little bit of freshness and PSV were the better team. Marseille collapsed after conceding the opening goal. All in all, we put in a rather poor team display and made mistakes', said the Belgian coach at the post-match press conference. 'We must be realistic and focus on a UEFA Cup place. We did not play well and our second half performance in particular was below expectations. We put in a poor team display. We will now have to turn our attention to what lies ahead: the next match in the domestic Ligue 1.'
