What Happened Marseille faced Strasbourg in a Ligue 1 match on Saturday, resulting in a 2-2 draw at Stade Velodrome. The match marked Marseille’s first game under interim coach Jacques Abardonado following the departure of Roberto De Zerbi, who left after a heavy 5-0 defeat to Paris Saint-Germain. Marseille initially took a commanding lead with goals from Mason Greenwood and Amine Gouiri, but a late resurgence from Strasbourg saw them equalize with a penalty from Joaquin Panichelli deep into injury time. Why It Matters This draw leaves Marseille in fourth place, now 11 points behind the league leaders, while Strasbourg remains in seventh with 31 points. The match was characterized by a tense atmosphere, with many Marseille fans protesting and arriving late. Despite a strong start, Marseille’s inability to secure the win raises concerns about their consistency and resilience, especially following a significant loss to their rivals. What’s Next Looking ahead, Marseille will need to regroup and address their defensive vulnerabilities as they aim to climb the Ligue 1 standings. The team must focus on maintaining their composure in future matches to avoid further late-game collapses. Strasbourg, on the other hand, will seek to build on this momentum as they continue their campaign in the league. Post navigation Marseille and Strasbourg Share Points in Dramatic 2-2 Draw
