Cited among the players who pose a problem for OM, Mason Greenwood responded on the field by scoring the winning goal for his team in Le Havre (0-1) on Sunday evening, then going to greet his coach, Habib Beye. In front of the microphones, the two men then assured that their relationship was far from being as bad as what was described by the press.
We will see what this match will change for the end of OM’s season, for the future of Greenwood, and that of Beye. On the other hand, what should no longer change is the identity of the top scorer in Ligue 1.
After finishing at the top of the rankings last year tied with Ousmane Dembélé (21 goals each), Mason Greenwood should this time be ahead of Estéban Lepaul. There was a four-goal difference between the two men at kick-off on the penultimate day. This is still the case before the final lift, because Rennais also scored on Sunday evening against Paris FC (2-1).
Greenwood beaten by Lepaul
Coincidentally with the calendar, the two players will face each other on the last day. And barring an improbable quadruple during OM-Rennes, Greenwood should leave the title of top scorer to Lepaul, who will become the first non-Parisian to finish alone at the top of this ranking since Alexandre Lacazette in 2015.
Clearly, it is not over these last two days that Greenwood lost this individual trophy. Before his goal in Le Havre, the former Mancunian had been silent since March 7. Over this period, Lepaul has scored 8 times, and has 4 goals in 4 matches. Decisive.
