Reduced to ten under a deluge, the Parisians once again beat Marseille at the Vélodrome (x-x), Sunday March 31 during the Ligue 1 Classic, counting for the 27th day.

Without five major players, Olympique de Marseille was cheap before this Championship Classic, the last of the name contested by the biggest star in Ligue 1, Kylian Mbappé. But the OMn only took on water due to the flood that fell on the Marseille city, still regretting a defeat conceded in numerical superiority for 50 minutes.

Ligue 1: the ranking and all the results of the 27th day

We do not know if the future departure of the French genius allowed OM to beat its attendance record at the Vélodrome stadium, with more than 66,000 & ;ldquo;fadas” came to shout their love for the Olympians. The Marseille spectators in any case said goodbye in their own way to number 7 of PSG, with a demur when Mbappé was replaced by Ramos at the hour mark.

L'OM believed in equalization

No doubt released by his trainer Luis Enrique after being very discreet, just like Ousmane Dembélé at the same time, who both went directly to the locker room. Before that, the first event of the evening was the direct expulsion of Parisian Lucas Beraldo for a small push on the shoulder as the last defender on Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang who could have gone on goal & hellip; from the center line.

The perhaps very severe red card, sent by Mr. Bastien after the help of the VAR, was obviously greeted by the entire Marseille public thinking that the case was going to be heard . It was without counting on an air-conditioning PSGen which took the lead in a beautiful collective movement initiated and concluded by Vitinha, served behind by Dembélé (1-0, 53rd).

Ramos crucifies Marseille

The Marseillais thought they would immediately come back to the score, five minutes later through Jordan Veretout, a goal again refused in a somewhat harsh manner for an active offside of Luis Henrique, who certainly had nothing to do in front of Gianluigi Donnarumma.

Jean-Louis Gasset's men pushed hard to try to equalize against the somewhat cowering Parisians, but there was always a leg dragging or a technical blunder from Marseille. Worse, Ramos, who came on in place of Mbappé, came to crucify OM in a counter-attack at the end of the match (2-0, 85th).
