Led by Aubameyang, the Olympians push. The Le Havre defense does not break.

On both sides, many players are warming up. Robinio Vaz is expected to return to Marseille. Abdoulaye Touré increases his pace.

After contact to the head, both players appear to be affected. Benjamin Pavard is bleeding, he is patched up by the Marseille staff.

Since returning from the locker room, Paixão has continued to make the HAC defenders dance. He is everywhere on the field. The former PSV player is a source of ideas.

The Olympians want to quickly take the lead. They are unrecognizable from the first act. The people of Le Havre seem resigned.

On his control, the Brazilian eliminates Zouaoui and engages directly. His shot ends far from Diaw’s cage. The Le Havre people are cornered in their camp.

The fourth referee announces six minutes more in this first act.

The Olympians have taken over the Le Havre camp. The HAC block is very compact near their surface. Outnumbered, the match will be very long for the Normans.

Didier Digard and his staff did not take off. The people of Le Havre do not understand the choice of Dechepy on Lloris’ red card.

The Marseillais have regained their desire. They conquered the opposing camp. Mason Greenwood is struggling at the start of the match.

Igor Paixão moved to the right while the Englishman moved to the left. No more false feet for the wingers, Roberto De Zerbi wants more crosses.

The Brazilian got rid of Nego. The Dane’s shot ends in Diaw’s gloves. Digard is furious on his bench.

First shot on target for the Olympians. The Dane strikes from outside the box after a good Marseille sequence. Mory Diaw is not worried.

Le Havre, without complexes, got off to a good start to the match. Didier Digard’s men don’t put the bus down and try to play on the counterattack. They carry out individual marking.

After the highlight of the HAC, the Olympians dictate the game. Mason Greenwood comes back inside and tries his luck, but it ends up on top. Very open match.

Recovered by Zouaoui, Samatta throws himself and runs into Rulli. The ball comes back to Soumaré but he is in an offside position. The people of Le Havre do not refuse the game.

Led by Rassoul Ndiaye, Le Havre are trying to integrate the opposing camp. Zouaoui hits but Pavard recovers. Le Havre positioned in the middle block.

The locals kick off the meeting.

The Olympian goalkeeper made 613 matches for OM, he received a standing ovation from the Stade Velodrome. His number is retired. He also played for Le Havre.

The 22 actors enter the volcanic atmosphere of the Vélodrome.

A recruit that supporters have been waiting for. Since his transfer on August 1 during the summer transfer window, Igor Paixão has been impatient to set foot on the pitch at the Vélodrome. He will do it again this Saturday (9 p.m.) against Le Havre as part of the 8th day of Ligue 1.
