For this Olympique Marseille / Olympique Lyonnais shock, which some already call the "Olympico" for women, Marseille will be expected at the turn, as in the "Clasico". A meeting, which had a hard time leaning in favor of PSG, who won the game 1 to 0.

Faced with OL, Marseille faces the ogre of this championship of D1 Feminine, with the firm intention to defend to the end. A task that promises to be very difficult for the promoted against an over-experienced team. We wanted to take the temperature with three Marseille, decisive in their campaign start with the club: Amandine Soulard, Nora Coton-Pelagie in previous articles and Viviane Asseyi.

How is your integration within the Marseille workforce?

Well it's going very well, frankly I get along well with everyone, the girls have welcomed me very well. That's a good group, who lives well, so I'm good here.

Did Kelly Gadea's presence help you make your mark?

Yes sure it's better to come in a team for me with a person we know a lot, it helps. After as I told you, the girls, everyone, are very friendly and so they really welcomed me.

You felt very present on the field against PSG, which may also explain the low score in favor of Paris, was that close to your heart in this match?

Frankly as in all games (ed).

It's still the first female "clasico".

Yes, yes it's true, for sure, but after that I take all the matches. In all the matches I will have to score, that the team scores, so that's my heart.

You scored your first goal against Soyaux last week, did it start your season a bit?

Well yes it's still important to open the meter. Now here, the main thing is that we must start to earn points, so to score is very nice, but we lost and in the end it is useless. But I'm not worried, we'll score goals and we'll win points, that's the main thing.

Against PSG, the game was really hanging, everyone wondered if Marseille could not be more ambitious. The next two games were a bit more difficult. Has not this "clasico" played you tricks, in the sense that it has praised the club, while the original goal is to maintain?

Not really, we do not think about everything that's going on, it's not our role, we focus on the field. After that we have to watch the other two games we do behind, we know very well that we ourselves made mistakes so it's not compared to what we had been told in Paris or whatever. It's two things apart. It's us on the ground, we made lots of mistakes, we paid cash, it's like that the D1.

What are the things that have not worked?

It's nothing, it's details on the ground. After that it works, we do everything in training to improve that and it will necessarily be better, that's for sure.

How do you apprehend this match against Olympique Lyonnais? Last year with Montpellier, it was a top-ranked match. How are you living this game?

It is prepared like all other games. We know very well that every game of the championship, it will be very difficult. Now Lyon it remains the champions of France and even European champions, for me the best team in Europe. After the games against Lyon, these are good games to play. It will take advantage, play his game, no pressure. They have two arms, two legs and a head like us (note). Will not have to take the head. We play and here, the field is the field.

You have no complex compared to Lyon, you have stored a lot of experience in D1 and even in France team. How do you help younger players, not to be afraid of this match?

Well, they are right not to be afraid, because if we start to be afraid of a match, it's useless to play football. We will play against teams that will be stronger than us, like less strong teams, like teams at our level, so do not be afraid and I think that here, young people have their carelessness, and it can help in this kind of match. We will not have to calculate, we will have to repeat our efforts, we must not take the lead really because we know that it will be against a big team, there is a big gap, we will not hide it but we will have to take it like all other matches. Play his game, and play all the shots thoroughly.
