Jerome Boateng, who has been playing at Olympique de Marseille since the beginning of this season, spoke about the match against the team. The German thus appealed to his former club mate.
Difficult months for Dembele
After an underperforming six-month loan period at Atletico Madrid, in which the 25-year-old has played just seven matches and not scored a single goal, Dembele has entered the season successfully. In the first five matches, he scored four goals, becoming a key figure for his team.
However, at the end of September last year, Dembele suffered a serious leg injury, which excluded him from the game for over two months. After returning to the pitch, he was initially unable to return to his disposal, which he delighted at the beginning of the games. He had to wait almost two months for the first goal.
“Even Lewandowski couldn’t have done better”
Meanwhile, Dembele suffered a second coronavirus infection, but when he started shooting, he became one of the most successful players in the entire League 1. In his last five league games, the 25-year-old has scored four goals. Only Kevin Gameiro from Strasbourg scored more goals in the same period (five).
While Dembele has scored two of his last four goals from penalties, his hits were decisive in terms of victories. His goals scored three points against Troyes, Saint-Etienne and Olympique Marseille. Especially the last of these goals was extremely important.
In the match with the team of Arkadiusz Milik, the 25-year-old showed a great pass by the opponent’s defender, then calmly defeated Pau Lopez. His club mate has even admitted that Dembele did better than his former team-mate. – It’s amazing what he can do with the ball. He scored a world-class goal. He couldn’t even do it better, he admitted.
