Marseille once again conceded points at home, being unable to do better than a 1-1 draw against Strasbourg on Sunday at the end of the 18th day of the League.
OM have only taken 13 points at home in Ligue 1 this season, compared to 24 away. But the Marseillais remain the only runners-up to Paris SG with five points ahead of the new third Lille.
At the Vélodrome, if Marseille had possession, it was Strasbourg thanks to the Dutchman Emanuel Emegha who struck first.
In the midfield, Andrey Santos saw Emegha’s call behind the Marseille central defenders’ backs. Alone against Geronimo Rulli, the Strasbourg striker deceived the goalkeeper with a ball from the right (1-0, 23rd).
In the 68th minute, coming on at half-time in place of Neal Maupay, the young Robinio Vaz, 17, caused a foul in the area, cut down by Santos which allowed Mason Greenwood to equalize and score his 12 goal of the season.
