LIGUE 1 - Sampaoli on Marseille draw: We were clearly the better side

After Marseille's tense 0-0 draw with Galatasaray today, manager Jorge Sampaoli maintained that his squad had been the superior team for the second consecutive European match.

“We had a bit of a muddled start, we lacked precision in the way we brought the ball out – despite our efforts, we weren’t able to win. We were clearly the better side against Lokomotiv Moscow and once again clearly better than Galatasaray tonight. The team deserves six points.”

“[On the overturned penalty on Guendouzi] The referee was close to the incident, then he used VAR to make a decision. This doesn’t concern me, I’m interested in the players and what happens on the pitch. [Cengiz] Ünder was a lot better in the second half. He’s crucial for us, but unfortunately he lacked a bit of precision in scoring or making the pass.”
