Bruno Genesio after Troyes-OM: 'The most important thing was to break the negative spiral'

After Marseille's 2-0 win against Troyes, head coach Bruno Genesio emphasized the importance of the result in helping the team regain confidence.

Following Marseille's 2-0 victory over Troyes, head coach Bruno Genesio admitted he was primarily pleased with the result. The manager noted that it was crucial for the team to break a long winless streak, even if the overall quality of play was not yet where he wants it to be.

When you are in a negative spiral, the most important thing is to break it, which we managed to do. For the rest, we will wait a little before we can enjoy both the result and the way we play. Bruno Genesio

Genesio also addressed the incident involving Igor Paixao, who appeared frustrated when substituted in the 87th minute. The coach clarified that there was no issue, emphasizing that the player has the full trust of the group and the coaching staff.

Regarding injuries, the manager confirmed that defender Derek Cornelius will be sidelined until the winter break due to a rare injury. Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg is unlikely to return for the upcoming match, though the staff remains hopeful for his recovery the following week.
