Bamba Dieng, decisive substitute
He came on in the 17th minute to replace the injured Cédric Bakambu.
The Senegalese knew how to make himself dangerous in the offensive phases.
He scored with a very nice acrobatic outside kick in the 39th minute to launch OM on the road to success in Lorient (0-3).
Enough to give confidence to his teammates before half-time.
In the second half, he again showed off on the third goal and served Gerson perfectly.
His exit on injury in the 71st is a real blow for OM.
Kamara, precious in the middle
Another very good match for the one who should leave Marseille free of any contract this summer.
Well installed in front of his defense, the number 4 prevented Lorient from progressing in the OM zone.
He lost only 5 of his 89 balls and won all of his 9 duels of the day.
Another very solid match for the “Minot”.
Guendouzi, ruthless against his former club
Mattéo Guendouzi had a good match against his former club.
Precious in the offensive phases, he won 11 of his 15 duels of the day and succeeded in 3 of the 4 dribbles he attempted.
His control oriented just before his goal in the 46th is to be underlined, a pity to have celebrated it…

FLOPS
Lorient's attack at bay
Since their 6-2 victory against Saint-Etienne, Christophe Pélissier's men have only scored 3 small goals in their last 5 matches.
Facing OM, Terem Moffi and the Breton attackers failed to hit a single target in their seven shots, which clearly illustrates their difficulties in front of goals.
Lorient is currently the 19th attack in the championship tied with Metz and could move up to 20th if Troyes finds the way to goals against Paris SG this Sunday evening.
The carnage in Marseille
This is the big black spot on Marseille's side: 4 players went out on injury this afternoon.
It was first Bakambu who left the field in the 17th minute, he was followed by Caleta-Car in the 53rd, as well as Gerson and Dieng in the 71st.
Already deprived of Payet until the end of the season, Sampaoli could lose essential elements of his team while there are still two matches to play: the trip to Rennes and the reception of Strasbourg in which Saliba will not participate since he will be suspended for accumulation of yellow cards.
Fabien Lemoine, a chopped match
Complicated match for the former Saint-Etienne player.
At 35, the Lorient captain was sanctioned with a caution at the start of the second half after… 4 gross fouls.
Struggling in midfield, he struggled against the duo Gueye Guendouzi.
His exit in the 60th was quite logical, especially after his warning.
