PARIS: Olympique de Marseille passed up the chance to go level on points with leaders Paris St-Germ
PARIS: Olympique de Marseille passed up the chance to go level on points with leaders Paris St-Germain on Sunday after losing at Strasbourg, while Olympique Lyonnais snatched a 2-1 victory at Toulouse thanks to a 95th-minute winner. Under new Italian coach Roberto De Zerbi, Marseille had looked resurgent this season but Diego Moreira’s strike for Strasbourg just before the break condemned the visitors to a first defeat of the season. Strasbourg’s first win in 17 outings against Marseille stopped their opponents from joining pacesetters PSG and Monaco on 16 points atop Ligue 1. In the 40th minute, Moreira surged onto a through ball on the left and slotted a calm finish past Marseille goalkeeper Geronimo Rulli to score the first goal of his senior professional career. Marseille had chances to equalise but Djordje Petrovic in the Strasbourg goal was equal to Mason Greenwood as the home side saw out their second win of the campaign. Earlier, Lyon also got their second win of the season courtesy of a Rasmus Nicolaisen own goal and Malick Fofana’s stoppage-time winner, after Yann Gboho had sent Toulouse into an early lead. The hosts went in front on 14 minutes when Gboho fired into the top corner after Lyon gave the ball away in their own half. But Pierre Sage’s side were back level two minutes before the half hour when Nicolaisen turned into his own net. The points seemed set to be shared until the ball broke to Fofana in the box and his flashed effort beat the goalkeeper and just crossed the line before defender Gabriel Suazo could block. Elsewhere, Reims beat Angers 3-1 on the road to move up to fourth, two points behind resurgent Marseille in third. A second-half brace from Ibrahim Sissoko earned a valuable away point for promoted Saint-Etienne against Nantes.
