The classic match of the 27th day of the French football championship in the 1st division (Ligue 1 Uber Eats) between OM and PSG at the Vélodrome stadium was widely followed on Sunday evening in many living rooms and bars in the Gabonese capital. 2-0 in favor of the capital team, even though they were 11 against 10, after the quick expulsion of Beraldo.
The performance of the Gabonese Panther, current spearhead of the Marseille attack, whose return to the national team is announced, was closely watched by his many fans who expected Pierre Emérick Aubameyang to increase his goal tally in Ligue 1.
However, the Gabonese forward, played the entire match by Jean-Louis Gasset, on the left flank of the Marseille attack, did not find the back of the net and also did not prevent the defeat of the Marseille team against the undisputed leader, PSG, who is on their way to victory.
But Aubameyang and his teammates did not disgrace themselves and could even have won the match, if not for Gigio Donarumma’s outstanding performance in their opponents’ goal. The great Italian goalkeeper disheartened the Marseillais by stopping 10 shots on target, compared to just 3 for PSG.
Aubameyang and his teammates, 7th in the standings with 39 points, remain in the race for European places, along with several other teams in contention, including Lille (4th with 46 points), Nice (5th, 43 points) and Lens (6th, 42 points).
Brest (50 points) and Monaco (49 points) complete the podium, behind PSG, with 11 matchdays left in the 2023-2024 season.
It may be in the away match against Lille on the next matchday, Friday, April 5, that the Panther will score his 18th goal in Ligue 1. Pierre Emérick Aubameyang, 34 years old, inspired and in good form this season, has 23 goals and 9 assists in all competitions.
