A week after the lead of Pablo Longoria and the heavy defeat in Auxerre (3-0), Olympique de Marseille found its audience of the Vélodrome stadium this Sunday evening. Opposed to FC Nantes, the men of Roberto de Zerbi returned to victory (2-0). A success that took time to take shape.
It must be said that the Olympians have long encountered a Nantes team well in place and which exercised a high pressing. A goal refused to Rabiot for a very slight offside could have released the situation for the Phocaeans (11e). Opposite, the Canaries had their chance, notably by Lepenant (17e) and the young Leroux (19e), very active.
Gouiri, again him
Antoine Kombouaré's tactics operated until the last quarter of an hour is approaching. Well shifted by Valentin Rongier, Amine Gouiri has ignited the velodrome of a cross shot (1-0, 73e). This is the third goal of the former Rennais (3 assists) in 5 matches played in his new colors. In the process, the Canaries fell a second time after a number of Mason Greenwood (2-0, 77e).
Long helpless, OM ended up blowing up the Nantes lock twice in a blow. Before welcoming Lens next weekend and going to Paris in fifteen days, OM therefore resumes three points ahead of Nice. For his part, Nantes remains 14e with 4 lengths ahead of the Le Havre barragist.
