OM can thank Mason Greenwood. A week after scoring twice on the Brest pitch (1-5), for his big debut in Ligue 1, the English winger did it again against Reims on Sunday evening at the Stade Vélodrome, at the end of the 2nd day.
While the Marseille team was trailing 1-2, the star recruit of the Ciel et Blanc emerged like a fox from the surface to equalize with a header (2-2, 71st), thus preventing Roberto De Zerbi’s men from suffering their first misstep of the season at home.
Mason Greenwood as Dimitri Payet
The former Mancunian joins Bradley Barcola (PSG) at the top of the scorers’ charts and, according to Optaalso becomes the first player to score at least 3 goals after two matches with Marseille in Ligue 1 since Dimitri Payet, in August 2013.
