- 35' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
- 40' Olympique de Marseille seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.

- 70' What a strike from Paul Lasne! The score is 3-0.
- 74' Duje Caleta-Car gets the nod from Olympique de Marseille. He replaces Kevin Strootman and will look to change the dynamic.
