Genesio, after three defeats: Marseille refuse to give up on Europe
Marseille, still without a point in the Europa League, visit Bayer Leverkusen on Thursday at 9 p.m. Genesio believes 9 to 11 points can still get them through.
Marseille have lost their first three Europa League matches and have zero points before Thursday's trip to Bayer Leverkusen, kick-off at 9 p.m. Even so, Bruno Genesio told the press that the club is not giving up on the competition, and that after fighting so hard to qualify, they will not throw it away now.
The coach argues that even a bad result in Germany would leave four games, twelve points and three of them at home, so 9 to 11 points is still within reach. Goalkeeper Jeffrey De Lange agreed: nothing is decided until it is over.
Among the fans the mood is different. According to RMC Sport, around 1,200 supporters will travel to the BayArena, but South Winners leader Rachid Zeroual admits he has already moved on from Europe and would rather focus on the league and the Coupe de France.
