Gideon Mensah reflects on Auxerre's stunning triumph over Marseille

Ghanaian defender Gideon Mensah has shared his thoughts following AJ Auxerre’s impressive 3-1 victory against Olympique Marseille in their recent Ligue 1 clash at Stade Orange Velodrome.

Mensah played a pivotal role in the match, completing the full 90 minutes and contributing to Auxerre's strong defensive display as they continued their recent streak of good form.

After the match, Mensah took to social media to express his emotions, stating, "Blood and Sweat Until the End," showcasing his commitment and the team’s determination.

The game featured an electrifying first half, with Lassine Sinayoko putting Auxerre ahead in the 10th minute.

Goals from Gaetan Perrin and Hamed Traore extended the visitors’ lead before halftime, establishing a comfortable position for the away side.
