OM lost on the Lens pitch this Saturday as part of the 9th act of Ligue 1. A defeat conceded with a score of 1-2 while the Olympians opened the scoring with the inevitable Greenwood (17th).

As against Sporting earlier in the week in the Champions League, the Marseillais were unable to maintain their advantage. And Pavard for having played the X factors well in spite of himself, involved in the two stunning goals for the Sang et Or.

By involuntarily hooking Edouard in the area, the former Lille player first caused the equalizing penalty transformed by the last named (23rd). Then the French international scored the decisive goal against his side at the start of the second half (53rd).

In the ranking, this double blow of fate favorable to Lensois who knew how to provoke their luck by showing themselves solid and diligent throughout the game is not without consequences. This Marseille setback allows PSG to take back control of the championship, and RCL to move into second position, ahead of OM.
