And yet, Gurtner had prepared … – Season

Sunday night, during his hat-trick at the Stade de la Licorne, Florian Thauvin scored his first goal on his "special" by going in the axis to put himself on his left foot. But this time, winger Marseille has decided to hit the closed side, while he regularly winds his strikes to look for the opposite corner. A variation of the game that surprised the goalkeeper Régis Gurtner. Ditto on the third goal, where the international tricolor deceives the porter Picard on a shot at the first post.

In a post-match press conference, Rudi Garcia has also explained that this gesture in front of the goal was regularly worked in training by Thauvin: "When he's working in front of the goal, he's working all out, his special wrapped, but also strong at the very far post as he did tonight."
