8:10 p.m. : The storm has just stopped in Marseille, but the rain continues. Dantesque conditions for this return semi-final. #OMFEY @franceinfo @francetvsport
8:10 p.m. : Comrade Adrien Hémard of franceinfo sport is at the Vélodrome stadium this evening, and he suffered a terrible storm a few minutes before kick-off.
8:08 p.m. : @Chip13 But if, but if, we are coming! I see OM failing on penalties against the Batavians after a 2-1 victory which will keep us up until the end of the night. Stéphanie Thonnet in turn forecasts a 2-2 which would eliminate Jorge Sampaoli’s men. Fortunately for the Marseille supporters, other of my comrades are more optimistic, in particular Florence Morel, also from the south, who announces a clear and flawless 3-0 for the Marseilles.
I await yours in the comments. The winner wins as usual a live entry to his glory 🙂
8:08 p.m. : Good evening FI. No forecast for the OM match tonight? European Cup anyway…’
8:07 p.m. : Alas @Rafael and God knows, however, that would suit RC Lens, a team that is dear to me. A priori, it would be a Dutch team that would take the lead and end up in C3 if it wins the National Cup.
8:07 p.m. : Good evening Pierre Godon. If Marseille wins EL2, does that give a European place in + in the championship classification for a qualification?
8:05 p.m. : Here’s good evening Pierre, present for the consoling, the ersatz of intertoto?!
8:08 p.m. : @Understand nothing Hang on, it’s technical. In the beginning were the Champions Cup (now Champions League), nicknamed C1, the Cup Winners’ Cup, C2, and the UEFA Cup (now Europa League), nicknamed C3, which brings together the teams that finished in the places of honor in the European championships. To complicate matters, UEFA has created the Europa League Conference, C4, therefore, for teams that have come even further in the league (around 6th place). And in between, the C2 no longer exists, the winners of the national cups finding themselves in the Europa League. Yes, it’s technical 🙂
8:05 p.m. : What is the Europa league conference compared to the Europa league??? Thank you Pierre kitouchsabillensport
8:02 p.m. : Here is the update on the news at 8 p.m.:
Stop or again? The Socialist Party is currently submitting to its National Council (CN) the historic agreement with La France insoumise for the legislative elections. A “Titanic Battle” as the party threatens to implode, with several major figures rejecting the alliance.
• OM play their place in the final of the Europa League Conference against Feyenoord Rotterdam in one hour. Follow the match in our live.
• Four helmeted and masked people, at least one of whom was carrying an assault rifle, robbed a Chanel luxury watch and jewelry store near Place Vendôme in Paris this afternoon. The robbers fled with a scooter and a motorcycle, without causing any injuries.
