Marseille’s Ounahi Struggles as Nice Dominates in Ligue 1 Clash

Footmercato did not mince words, giving Ounahi a score of 4 out of 10, pointing to a "discreet" game and a lack of precision in his interventions. His most notable action of the match - a shot that ended its course far above the goal - has become emblematic of his performance on Saturday. His replacement by Jordan Veretout in the 56th minute introduced a new dynamic in midfield, with Veretout showing an aggressiveness and presence that many felt was lacking in Ounahi.

The disappointment with Ounahi’s performance is a sentiment shared by 90min, who also give him a 4/10. The media highlights a performance "without much flavor" and a player who seemed "jaded" by the recent international break. The lack of Ounahi’s usual impact on the game is all the more noticeable, as he had been able to show himself more "incisive" in previous matches.

Maxifoot is even more critical, rating Ounahi 3/10. The site evokes a "disappointing" performance, criticizing his lack of aggressiveness and his timidity in the game. The midfielder, usually more assertive, seemed to lose his bearings, being "pushed around" physically throughout his presence on the field.

Hommedumatch.fr shares this analysis, offering a slight reprieve with a score of 4. The assessment remains however severe: a player who did not know how to seize his chance, accumulating an unusual "technical waste" and offering a performance without brilliance.

Le Phocéen is probably the harshest in its judgment, with a clear score of 2/10. For them, Ounahi was "disappointing", remaining constantly in the shadow of his teammates and chaining turnovers, far from the level expected for a match of this magnitude.
