This success, which allowed the Phocéens to take the lead in the Ligue 1 standings, was celebrated as it should be by the English player.
Roberto De Zerbi’s side remain unbeaten in the French top flight, with 13 points from five games. The comeback puts them level with Monaco and defending champions Paris Saint-Germain in what promises to be a thrilling title race.
A Greenwood in madness
Greenwood has shone for Marseille following his £27million move from Manchester United, scoring five goals while his creativity in the final third is being put to good use. He failed to score in a famous Olympico against Lyon which saw De Zerbi’s side win despite being reduced to 10 men after just five minutes.
Marseille looked to have given up two points when Rayan Cherki equalised in the 93rd minute, but Jonathan Rowe had the final say as he scored two minutes later to seal a 3-2 win. There were wild celebrations in the dressing room afterwards, with Greenwood seen banging his fist on a table. An enthusiasm that is sure to please OM fans.
