A goal that feels good at Stade Brestois.
Author of a good performance, striker Franck Honorat rewarded the efforts of his teammates throughout the meeting.
Alongside Jérémy Le Douaron, he was able to get up to speed in the defensive phase.
In the offensive sector, his speed will have hurt the Marseillais.
His very nice goal scored will do him good for the rest of the championship.
The perfect shot from Der Zakarian
The words of Michel Der Zakarian went well at the break.
Author of a first period not at all under control, the Brestois showed realism when they returned from the locker room.
Indeed, the intentions were not at all the same as in the first act.
Thanks to the penalty from Romain Faivre (53rd), the Bretons returned to the game and then made it a point of honor to win in this meeting with Franck Honorat.
Dangerous on each of its counter-attacks, the Stade Brestois showed composure and realism.
Gerson, a light in the Marseille sky
Brazil international Gerson scored his team's only goal.
Already a scorer in the week against FC Nantes, the attacking midfielder is essential and asserts himself as and when he comes out.
Against Brest, he was once again convinced by his desire and his incessant races.
Despite the defeat, Gerson may have found his new job, namely, a role of "support" for the forward striker of Olympique de Marseille.
FLOPS
A Marseille defense in the hard
Forming the best defense in the championship before kick-off (12 goals conceded), Jorge Sampaoli's men were far too timid against the Brest attackers.
Alvaro Gonzalez failed to show the way for his two teammates (Saliba and Peres).
Boubacar Kamara, at fault on the penalty converted by Faivre, testifies to the difficulty in this meeting for the Olympians.
Result, the Marseillais concede two goals which lose three precious points in the race for the Champions League.
A match to forget for the Marseille defense.
Marseille, 45 minutes then nothing
A double face on the Marseillais side in this meeting.
The mastery and "almost total" domination of the Olympians in the first period was not seen after the locker room.
For Dimitri Payet's teammates, it is a second act without any real ideas where the players have not put the necessary desire to keep the score.
The Marseillais may have underestimated the Bretons.
But in the end, it is a defeat that hurts Marseille heads.
