Marseille and Strasbourg met in a high-stakes Ligue 1 match at the Stade Vélodrome on Saturday night, with both sides looking to secure a win that would put them into contention for a top-four finish.
The game was dominated by Marseille's star player Dimitri Payet, who played a key role in their victory. Payet scored twice in the first half, including a stunning volley from distance, which helped his team take a 2-0 lead into halftime.
Strasbourg, on the other hand, were unable to find the back of the net despite some impressive attacking play from their players. However, they did manage to create several chances in the second half, but failed to convert them into goals.
Payet's masterclass was a highlight of the match, as he showed why he is considered one of the best strikers in Europe. He was clinical in front of goal, scoring two crucial goals to help his team secure all three points.
Guendouzi also had a notable performance for Marseille, scoring a goal in the 74th minute to seal the victory. The midfielder's goal came after a great run down the left wing, where he created space for himself before slotting home a low shot.
Despite the loss, Strasbourg will be encouraged by their efforts and will look to bounce back in their next match. On the other hand, Marseille will continue to be the title favorites in the league and will aim to maintain their dominance in the coming weeks.
