Trailing, OM reversed the trend and managed to win against AS Monaco (2-1), this Sunday evening, at the end of the 13th day of Ligue 1 McDonald's.
From the start of the match, both teams put in a lot of intensity without letting go of the ball carrier. The opportunities follow one another on both sides, like a big save from Rulli against Ben Seghir (4th) and a cross shot from Greenwood pushed back by Majecki (24th). In the end, it was the Monegasques who were the first to be rewarded, shortly before half-time, by opening the scoring through Golovin (41st). Balogun recovers the ball from Rongier's feet before serving Zakaria. The latter shifts the Russian winger in the area, who follows up with a shot from the right and deceives Rulli.
OM firmly believes in it!
Returning from the locker room, the Olympians showed good intentions and were quickly rewarded with an equalizer (53rd). On a cross from Garcia, Salisu fails to divert the ball. Maupay recovers and serves Luis Henrique, alone in front of goal, who deceives Majecki with a header. Pushed by the supporters of the Orange Vélodrome, the Marseillais completely reversed the trend at the end of the match, thanks to a penalty transformed by Greenwood, who freed his team (89th).
At home, Olympique de Marseille returns to victory and offers its second success on home soil this season in Ligue 1. Roberto De Zerbi's players climb to 2nd place in the championship, with 26 points on the clock. For its part, AS Monaco ranks 3rd with an identical number of points. Next meeting for the two teams: OM will travel to AS Saint-Étienne. ASM will host Toulouse Football Club.
