Justin Kluivert’s XXL match –

Nice largely dominated Olympique de Marseille (4-1), but if there was one man to choose from the Aiglons, it would be Justin Kluivert. The Dutchman, who had struggled so far, was excellent.

This Wednesday evening, the Allianz Riviera was sold out for the meeting between OGC Nice and Olympique de Marseille in the quarter-finals of the Coupe de France. Despite a goal conceded very early, the Aiglons were able to react and completely annihilated the Olympians by scoring four goals. A real show of force from the men of Christophe Galtier.

Of course, it’s a collective. Of course, we always bring out the names of Gouiri or Dante, and it is true that the two were exceptional on this meeting, but if we had to try something else, for once, we would have to name Justin Kluivert. The Dutchman, a real nugget at Ajax Amsterdam, had a less good time at AS Roma before flying to the Côte d’Azur.

Man of the match, no doubt

Borrowed since the start of the season, we no longer recognized the one who made the defenses dance in the Eredivisie. He did not score, did not make an assist and even less difference. But he chose his evening well. Kluivert has done absolutely everything to Luan Peres and the Olympians. Twirling, he offered himself a nice double and a decisive pass. A full match, obviously welcomed by his coach at a press conference.

He lacked assist and goal statistics, he had been gaining momentum since his return from injury, he was struggling to finish his actions. I took the option of putting him on the right side, I knew he was going to be more of a passer and that we weren’t going to wait for him on his right foot. There was success in my choice, but it is linked to what he put in this match, he had a top match exclaimed Christophe Galtier. This time, it is launched?
