OM took advantage of their sixth friendly match to return to success, against Saint-Etienne (2-1), after two draws against Braga (1-1) and Benfica (1-1). A victory that reassures Pape Gueye, author of a rather interesting entry into the game during the second act played in Gueugnon, this Wednesday evening. “It was important to meet a Ligue 1 team, which is the kind of opponent we face in the season, to know where we are physically and in relation to the coach’s instructions. So far we are quite comfortable with what is being asked of us. We had a good match against Saint-Etienne, a very good team. We knew it wasn’t going to be easy because they have very good players. The recruits have helped us a lot, they are integrating well. There is something better in the game, in particular.“
