Marseille Start Life After De Zerbi with Strasbourg Draw
Marseille conceded a 97th-minute penalty after leading 2-0, amid defensive errors, fan unrest, and coach Roberto De Zerbi's midweek exit, marking a turbulent week for the club.
- Marseille conceded a 97th-minute penalty, resulting in a 2-2 draw after Joaquin Panichelli scored for Strasbourg, denying victory. Mason Greenwood scored his 14th goal earlier.
- Amid a tense atmosphere at the Stade Vélodrome, Marseille's players were reeling after Roberto De Zerbi's departure on Wednesday and a humiliating 5-0 loss at PSG, while empty stands displayed angry banners targeting Frank McCourt and Pablo Longoria and fans booed players onto the field.
- An Emerson foul in the 18-yard box conceded the penalty that decided the result, after Marseille's Gouiri curled in the 47th following a goalkeeper's botched clearance, and Nanasi pulled one back in the 74th.
- The result keeps the league's top half unsettled as Marseille remain trophyless since the now-defunct League Cup in 2012, while Lille missed closing the gap after a 1-1 draw with Brest.
- With the draw, Marseille sits fourth and two points behind Lyon with one game more, while Paris Saint-Germain's loss and Lens' fixture keep the title race open.
