Three days later his rout on the pitch of Club Bruges (3-0) and his elimination from the Champions LeagueOlympique de Marseille (OM) did not dispel the doubts. While they led 2 goals to 0 against Paris FC, Saturday January 31, as part of the 20e day of the French football championship, Roberto De Zerbi’s men let the victory slip away at the very end of the match (2-2). They only leave with one point from their trip to the Jean-Bouin stadium. Enough to plunge the Marseille club a little further into turmoil.
During the first quarter of an hour of play, neither team really took the lead, before the match turned in favor of the OM players. On a cross from Mason Greenwood, the Parisian Moustapha Mbow diverted the ball with his hand in his area: penalty. And the English striker himself was responsible for giving his team the advantage (0-1, 18e). The opening of the score pushed Maxime Lopez’s teammates to discover themselves and they conceded several clear chances, which were not converted by the Marseillais with a severe lack of precision.
In the second period, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang doubled the lead for OM, pushing Mason Greenwood’s cross into the net (0-2, 54e). But the Phocaeans ended up paying for their lack of efficiency at the end of the match. Jonathan Ikoné gave the Parisians hope with a good lead (1-2, 81ste). Then Ilan Kebbal snatched the equalizer in added time, converting the penalty obtained after a poor exit from Marseille goalkeeper, Geronimo Rulli. A draw who does the business of Paris FC, engaged in the race to maintain.
The 20e League day continues this evening with the trip from Nantes to Lorient and that from Rennes to Monaco.
