Benoit Cheyrou: Marseille "must recover" against Lyon

Marseille midfielder Benoit Cheyrou has admitted that his side must bounce back from Europa League defeat to Borussia Monchengladbach when they face Lyon on Sunday.

The 31-year-old has urged his L'OM teammates, who lost 2-0 to the German side, to forget about the European result and focus on the vital Ligue 1 clash.

"Of course, we took a blow to the head, but we must quickly prepare for the match with Lyon," Cheyrou told Marseille's official website.

"We must recover, it will affect our physical and mental strength, but we must work hard."

Marseille are currently third in Ligue 1 ahead of Sunday's clash, a point ahead of Lyon.
