Live | OM-Monaco, the context: proper attire required
It’s quite surprising, or rather unusual, to draw up a first assessment at this moment of the year, when January is declining and the transfer window is finally coming to an end. Pablo Longoria had tried the exercise significantly earlier, almost two and a half months ago. His OM came out of a crucial success in Monaco (2-3) which offered another relief to his first part of the season, forgiveness for his first fifteen outings. He has confirmed his good health since the resumption of a slashed season due to the World Cup in Qatar, with four new victories. That is a total of 42 points at dusk of the first leg. OM had rarely been so well off at the start of the return phase!
Which starts, this evening, with … the arrival of Monaco, the software of the LFP no longer taking into account, for a few seasons, the initial confrontations. The first of 19 lifts comes with hopes that seemed almost insane when Tudor and his gang kicked off their season on Aug. 7. Almost six months later, the fanatics of OM dream of a podium, of the Champions League. The most indomitable even begin to drop the taboo word: title. Before ogling so far, so high, we must already confirm the expectations born of a dizzying first part. And it starts with a gala meeting during which OM will have to keep their correct attire until the beginning of June.
