Events
Match Events
- 0' The referee blows the starting whistle. The fans are roaring. The teams are ready for the match. Olympique de Marseille is hosting RC Strasbourg Alsace for another epic battle.
- 5' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Anthony Caci suffering a number of foals already.
- 10' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Olympique de Marseille that had 467 games and scored 519 goals.
- 15' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Luiz Gustavo made 467 appearances and scored 9 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 20' Morgan Sanson has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 1 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 25' Boubacar Kamara has been relatively quiet despite scoring 4 goals in his last 467 appearances.
- 27' Kenny Lala adds to his 0 season tally! RC Strasbourg Alsace lead 0-1 — and this changes everything.
- 32' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Olympique de Marseille needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 33' That is a Yellow card for RC Strasbourg Alsace. Adrien Thomasson will be fuming at that decision.

- 41' Clinical. Composed. Brilliant. Dimitri Payet makes it 1-1.
- 44' Morgan Sanson doubles the advantage! 2-1 and this game is slipping away from the opposition.
