Barely three weeks gone and a new Classic. Olympique de Marseille hosted Paris Saint-Germain, at the Vélodrome stadium, on Sunday February 26, on behalf of the 25th day of Ligue 1. And although in Olympic form (seven wins in the last nine Ligue 1 games) , Igor Tudor’s men did not repeat the feat against a PSG led by a Kylian Mbappé of the big nights.
Author of a double, and decisive passer for Lionel Messi, the Frenchman was involved in the three goals of the Parisian demonstration at the Vélodrome. Above all, he allowed PSG to kill the match, while the Parisians were again jostled by the Marseillais during the first twenty-five minutes.
Deprived of Neymar, PSG therefore relied on the Mbappé-Messi duo, with success. What to take a serious step towards the title of champion, and to approach more calmly the round of 16 second leg of the Champions League against Bayern Munich.
