OM hit with another early stumble: four losses in five matches
OM were beaten by Beşiktaş and now, for the second time in their history, have lost four of their first five games this season.
OM’s start in Europe has been rough again. As L'Équipe reports, they were swept aside by Beşiktaş with a 1-4 defeat in the Europa League, ending up with four losses in their first five matches.
Back to 1964
The newspaper notes that this kind of start only happened once before in the club’s history: they have to go back to 1964 to find a run that matches this one. This latest result against Beşiktaş underlines how difficult it’s been for the team to pick up points early in the season.
With this record, OM’s room for manoeuvre in the competition tightens quickly. The next fixtures will be crucial if they want to stop the slide and regain momentum.
