In recent weeks, he could not be sure of a place in the starting line-up of Olympique de Marseille. Jorge Sampaoli in the position of center forward was more likely to bet on. What’s more, voices of dissatisfaction related to the Pole’s disposition began to appear in the media.
Excellent performance by Arkadiusz Milik
The Argentine coach decided to give Milik a chance from the first minute in the match against Angers and he was right. The former Napoli striker showed excellent shooting form, hitting the 18th, 70th and 78th minutes. Ultimately he won 5: 2.
Team Angers is undoubtedly Milik’s favorite rival on French fields. In mid-May last year, in the direct clash of both teams, OM won 3-2, and all three hits for the hosts were scored by a Pole. He scored a victory goal in the last minute of added time from the penalty spot.
Milik appreciated by the media
The great form of the Pole did not go unnoticed by the French media. For the first time this season, the daily “L’Equipe” placed him in the top eleven of the queue, giving him a grade of 9. Apart from the Pole, Matteo Guendouzi was also included in the list, assisting Milik at one of the goals. What’s more, none of the distinguished footballers received a higher score than the striker of the Polish national team, so it is safe to say that Milik is number one in France this week.
In the current season, he played 13 matches, scoring four goals.
