Zapping Foot National Coupe de France: Calais, Quevilly, El-Biar, … the greatest exploits of the competition
Lensois and Marseillais went through all the emotions! This Saturday, the two teams faced each other during the 12th day of Ligue 1. In a completely crazy end to the match, it was OM who ended up winning (1-3). However, everything started well for the locals. Very enterprising, Will Still's players got into the match well, with some hot situations in particular, like this cross in front of Thomasson's goal on which Machado was unable to get his head on (4th), or this intervention by Rulli in front of Nzola (8th). The Lensois were dominant in this first act, notably with the opportunity of Nzola (44th), very close to opening the score. But in the end, OM was more realistic.
A completely crazy end to the match
OM transformed. Returning from the locker room, Roberto De Zerbi's players showed a completely different face and surprised the Sang et Or. In the 49th minute of play, it was Marseillais Valentin Rongier who opened the scoring for his first goal of the season . The Lensois were stunned and even conceded a second goal in the 57th minute, scored by the Brazilian Luis Henrique. But the Lensois move forward and reduce the score thanks to Angelo Fulgini (80th). In the last 5 minutes of this match, Lens equalized, but their goal was canceled for a foul. And unfortunately for all the people of Lens, Marseille took the opportunity to crucify the local hopes and brought the score to 1-3 thanks to Hojbjerg at the very end of the match (89th, 1-3). With this success, OM climbs to 3rd place in the ranking, while Lens misses the opportunity to get closer to the podium.
To summarize
Lensois and Marseillais went through all the emotions! This Saturday, the two teams faced each other during the 12th day of Ligue 1. In a completely crazy end to the match, it was OM who ended up winning (1-3). However, everything started well for the locals.
