Sanchez sees (already) double
Second tenure, and first double for Alexis Sanchez in the Marseille jersey.
Very accomplice with Payet on the front of the attack, the Chilean no longer has his explosiveness of yesteryear, but he has not lost his technical quality and his formidable efficiency.
First scorer with a beautiful shot curled under the bar (10th), he then showed opportunism to deceive Schmeichel a second time (42nd).
His pressing often hampered Nice's first recovery in the first period.
Hyperactive and decisive Marseille pistons
In the continuity of their first matches of the season, OM were once again able to rely on the big match of their pistons, who are still just as active.
Jonathan Clauss was the first to shine, thanks to his hard work and his decisive pass on the opener.
Nuno Tavares then entered the scene, after a timid start.
The young Portuguese was responsible for doubling the bet, with a low shot.
Also involved in Sanchez's second goal.
Permanent dangers for the Nice defense, the two men were able to breathe by being replaced in the second half.
OM will need their services during the busy weeks ahead.
middle boss rongier
Holder in the Marseille midfield alongside Jordan Veretout, Valentin Rongier delivered a big match.
His numerous recoveries of balls and his forward projections hurt the Nice people very badly in the first period.
He seems very comfortable in the very vertical game advocated by Igor Tudor since the start of the season.
FLOPS
The excitement of Nice
Inferior on all counts, the Gym particularly paid dearly for their excessive defensive feverishness.
Lost duels, bad raises, risky placements… the Nice rearguard hit rock bottom in the first period, losing a bewildering number of balls in their own camp.
Associated with young Viti, Dante sank in the central hinge, while Melvin Bard and Jordan Lotomba suffered terribly on the wings.
The Niçois showed the same problems after the break, but OM were lenient by displaying a more managerial face.
But where was Delort?
Feverish behind, Nice also fished offensively.
The Aiglons, aligned in an ambitious 4-2-3-1, struggled to get clear chances.
Blame it on a crying lack of inspiration and sharpness.
Andy Delort, present at the forefront, did not prove dangerous once.
Isolated, the former Montpellier striker misused the few balls he received near the surface.
A game to quickly forget.
