Another Ligue 1 loss has ended Marseille's chances of winning the title, according to Marcelo Bielsa.
Marseille coach Marcelo Bielsa has given up hope of winning the Ligue 1 title after his team's third consecutive loss on Friday.
A 20th-minute goal from Serge Gakpe saw Nantes upset Marseille 1-0 at the Stade de la Beaujoire-Louis Fonteneau.
Bielsa's men are fourth and seven points adrift of league leader Lyon, with the team's spot in the European places suddenly under threat.
The Argentine took responsibility for his team's loss, and said the team's title bid was over.
"A team that loses three consecutive matches in the closing stages of the championship cannot hope to win the title," Bielsa said.
