For the third time in a row in Ligue 1, OM lost this Friday evening, on the Losc pitch (3-1), at the opening of the 28th day.

The Jean-Louis Gasset effect is over in Marseille… After being beaten by Rennes (2-0) and PSG (0-2) last weekend, OM fell again this Friday evening at the opening of the 28th day of Ligue 1, logically beaten by Lille (3-1).

The Mastiffs have had the clearest chances in this refocus, but came up against an imperial Pau Lopez. It was not until the second half that the Northerners made the difference. Following a foul by Samuel Gigot in the surf, Jonathan David opened the scoring from the penalty spot (1-0, 54th). Rémy Cabella was responsible for making the break with a sublime shot curling into the top corner (2-0, 71st).

The suspense only lasted two short minutes…

For their part, the Phocaeans suffered a lot and created few chances. Aubameyang, however, had a big opportunity, but came up against Lucas Chevalier (74th). However, a big mistake by the Lille defense allowed the Marseillais to get back into the match, with Ismaily scoring against his side (2-1, 82nd).

Yes, but the suspense will not last long. Came into play in the second half, Gabriel Gudmundsson, receiving a back cross, gave his team some breathing space almost immediately (3-1, 84th). A third setback in a row for OM, who perhaps said goodbye this Friday to qualifying for the next Champions League campaign. Indeed, the Phocaeans are two points behind 4th place. Conversely, the Northerners are back on the podium and are more than ever in the race for the C1.
