Speaking to Canal Plus journalist Laurent Paganelli immediately after the game, the midfielder offered his take on the game.
The first question concerned Bordeaux's strategy for the game, which seemed to consist of "waiting to strike on the counter, rather than creating chances more directly."
Soualiho Meïté: "No defence is perfect, I think we could have done more to challenge them. But despite all our preparation, and the video analysis we did, they came out on top tonight."
But he also had time to pay tribute to the positive impact of new boss Gus Poyet.
Soualiho Meïté: "Having a new coach come in has been good for us. He's given us that extra edge, and helped to get us back on the right path. But, as you can see from tonight, there are still things we need to work on. We should never have conceded that goal! It's put an end to our winning run, but it won't stop our momentum. Marseille are a very strong team, we knew that. They play good football, they like to dominate possession, and that's what they did tonight. But I still think we could have coutner-attacked more, had more shots on goal. We weren't accurate enough in the final third."
We put up a good fight, but we were missing that little something special tonight
In his post-match press conference, Gus Poyet reflected on this defeat.
