OM won this Sunday evening against Merlus (4-2) at the end of the 15th day of the championship.
Marseille has just completed a fifth match without defeat in all competitions this Sunday evening against Lorient (4-2) at the end of the 15th day of Ligue 1. The Marseillais were once again carried by a great Aubameyang, author of a double (9th, 42nd) as well as two goals from Mbemba (3rd) and Balerdi (33rd). With this success, OM returns to 6th place, tied on points with Lens and Reims (23 points) while Lorient (16th) cannot do so.
The Marseillais did not take long to settle the score at Moustoir; From the third minute of play, Mbemba opened the scoring with a cross from Lodi, taking advantage of a good header from Gigot. But the Phocaeans did not stop there and doubled the lead six minutes later with the inevitable Aubameyang (8th). On a good cross from Mbemba, again in a good move, the Gabonese striker scored his first goal of the evening with a header.
Still in the first half, another defender stood out on the Marseille side. Balerdi took advantage of a Clauss corner to score with a nice helmet kick. Before half-time, the match got even more heated with Merlus’ first goal of the evening. Taking advantage of a good ball from Dieng, Faivre had to try twice but made the net shake (41st). Nothing to intimidate OM who immediately responded with Aubameyang, who scored twice after a good call from deep (42nd).
An OM with two faces
As is often the case this season, Olympioque de Marseille remained in the locker room. In the second half, it was the Bretons who proved dangerous. For his first start with Lorient, Mendy reduced the gap against his former club (52nd). A few minutes later, Lodi and Lopez avoided panic in the Marseille house by saving their team on the line. Finally, despite Clauss’ red card for a nasty foul on Yongwa (80th), Marseille validated their fourth consecutive success.
