On Saturday, in the French Cup match, Marseille's "Olympique" defeated the eleventh division "Hyeres" with a score of 2:0. However, this victory of the Marseille team was overshadowed by the inexplicable mistake of Eric Bailly.
The defender, in the 15th minute, made an open-leg tackle to the opponent's chest and rightfully received a red card. According to the newspaper "RMC Sports," after receiving the blow, goalkeeper Almike N'Diaye lay on the ground for several minutes and was urgently taken to the hospital. It is reported that his condition is stable.

Bailly will now have to wait for a verdict on a long-term suspension. The defender, who represents the "Olympique" team on loan basis, has played only 6 matches in the local championship this season. The French giants will have the opportunity to buy him from the "Man United" team after the season, if certain conditions are met.
