A crazy shock! For the 15th day of Ligue 1, Olympique de Marseille, second in the championship, hosted LOSC, fourth, who were three points behind at kick-off. A particularly attractive poster on paper and which was also attractive on the pitch. After a great start to the match, the Phocéens took the advantage with a sublime collective action perfectly finished by Quentin Merlin (17th, 1-0). Ahead at the break, however, the Marseillais suffered.
A lively match
And in the second half, the pressure increased, Geronimo Rulli making a series of classy saves. On the other side, Neal Maupay found the post while the Olympians did a lot on the counterattack. But ultimately, Rulli ended up cracking on a header from Diakité (87th, 1-1). The tension was enormous between the two clubs, Lirola being sent off in added time after a killer tackle (94th). In the end, OM and Lille parted ways 1-1 which did not suit anyone.
