U19: Game, set and match against Le Rove

The start of the Australian Open may have inspired Grégory Auger's players last Saturday in their derby match against Le Rove. Both teams came out firing on all cylinders, scoring four goals in the first half. Antoine Valero opened the scoring with a penalty, but Le Rove equalised. Ugo Lamare then scored, only for Le Rove to equalise again shortly afterwards. At half-time, the score in this thrilling match was 2-2.

In the second half, our Olympians continued to accelerate and Le Rove couldn't keep up. Ugo Lamare scored twice, then Milan Lecesse scored from the penalty spot and Moctar Guirrasy helped OM fly up the scoreboard to lead 6-2. In stoppage time, Le Rove pulled one back to make it 6-3.

In the standings, OM climb to second place, four points behind leaders AS Monaco. On Wednesday 28 January, our U19s will play a postponed match from the 11th round of fixtures away to SC Aubagne Air Bel.
