Sampaoli: "Galtier was one of the best in the world last season”

Before Nice - Marseille (Matchday 3, this Sunday at 20:45), Jorge Sampaoli had his press conference. He gave his opinion on the derby and paid tribute to Christophe Galtier, the Aiglons’ coach. "Nice will be a tough match for us, they are a good team with young players who have improved their squad," explained the Marseille coach. "Galtier was one of the best coaches in the world last season, because he won the L1 (with Lille) ahead of PSG, a club that should be untouchable on paper. It will be a very interesting match for us, I'm really looking forward to it. It's a big challenge for me as a coach but also for the players."
