- The Marseille coach accused sections of the press of spreading falsehoods and what he called relentless targeting, adding that some articles even left off his job title and that the attacks reach his family.
- Greenwood, interviewed on Ligue 1+, backed Beye and urged fans not to believe unverified stories, a show of support that followed his match-winning penalty at Le Havre.
- The media dispute deepened on Tuesday when TV pundit Christophe Dugarry rebuked Beye for complaining to journalists given the team’s disappointing season.
- Marseille’s win kept hopes of European competition alive, with a home match against Stade Rennais next Sunday set to shape whether the club reaches the Europa League.
