Former Olympique de Marseille player, Adil Rami, praised the performance and characteristics of Vitina, the young Portuguese striker in Marseille, who scored two goals against Troyes.
Adel Rami (37), former Olympique de Marseille player (2017-2019) and current captain of the ESTAC national team, faced his former team in the match that took place on Sunday evening at the Orange Vélodrome. Unfortunately for him, his team lost to OM (3-1). During the match, Vitina (23) faced OM striker, who scored two goals during the match. Despite the loss, Rami showed fair play when talking about Vitinha’s performance in the mixed area: “I saw he was under a lot of pressure, plus he goes from the Portuguese championship to the French championship so there is still a big difference. I really like this profile of a player who plays with his back to the game, who plays with his arms. After that I find him smart and good in the box ( …) and this match will benefit him.”
Therefore, Adel Rami praised the advantages of Vitinha, and highlighted in particular his intelligence in the game and his efficiency in the penalty area. Despite the defeat, he seems to have maintained his sense of humor and fair play, something that is always appreciated in the football world.
