The decisive entry of Pembélé


Thimotée Pembélé could hardly have dreamed of better for his debut with the Girondins.

Entered at the break, instead of an overwhelmed Mexer, the young player on loan from PSG has completely revived his team.

It was he who sounded the revolt by reducing the gap, with a powerful strike deflected by Luan Peres.

Very enterprising offensively, he also blocked his corridor well against De la Fuente, very visible before his entry.

Oudin, the other decisive substitute


The Bordeaux substitutes were to their advantage at the Vélodrome.

Entered in the place of Kalu, victim of vagal discomfort at the start of the match, Rémi Oudin particularly distinguished himself in the second half.

Author of the equalizing goal, with a nice volley at the entrance to the area, the former Rémois showed great activity and saved Bordeaux at the end of the match, by making a risky tackle on Benedetto in the area.

Flops

OM can blame themselves


Despite their two goals ahead at the break, OM let slip a victory that stretched out their arms. The Marseillais had yet mounted in power over the first act, but the break completely cut off their momentum. Unrecognizable from the start, Jorge Sampaoli's men lost control of the game and let themselves be taken over by more incisive Bordelais. Defensively struggling, the local team was unable to deliver any intensity during a second period that was far too insufficient.

Balerdi has cracked


The symbol of the dirty Marseille evening.

Solid and serene in the first period, Leonardo Balerdi collapsed after returning from the locker room.

The Argentine defender appeared in difficulty against the Bordeaux attackers and especially received a logical red card at the end of the match, following a dangerous tackle committed on the young Mara.

Mexer overtaken


Holder in a Bordeaux defense with three central, Mexer made a catastrophic copy in the first period.

Completely spectator on the two Marseille goals, the former Rennais should also have conceded a penalty for an obvious fault but not sanctioned by the referee and the Var ... Vladimir Petkovic put an end to his ordeal at the break, replacing him with Pembélé .

The rest, we know it!
