AEK… here are Marseille’s weaknesses! THE Nis he didn’t catch high standards of performance, but he managed to bend them Marseilles (1-0) a few days before they welcome the “yellow and black”.
He “photographed” his team’s weaknesses Gennaro Gattuso Nice with their performance in the last twenty minutes, when they increased their pressure after Balerdi was sent off and were finally vindicated by a static phase, which have hurt the incoming Union opponent enough this year. With this three points, Nice returned to the top, while Marseille remained with one win in their last six games.
Marseille in the first part was better in… points! More threatening, with more clear moments, but the big chance in front of the two frames was missing. In the 26th minute, Ismaila Sarr found the net, but the goal did not count as he was exposed and the visitors’ joy did not last long. The score remained 0-0 until the end of the half, with Nice not performing well in the second half either.
Gattuso’s side had their lines close and were improved offensively, threatening with Sarr, Arit and Aubameyang but could not find the goal they wanted. With Balerdi picking up two bookings in three minutes (75′, 78′) and leaving his side a man down, that proved pivotal as the unmarked Gessan headed in Boga’s corner to make it 1- 0 that remained until the finale.
