At 10 against 11, Marseille wins against Lyon, notably thanks to a goal from Geneva’s Garcia – RTS

What a performance from Olympique de Marseille! Reduced to 10 men in the 5th minute and a 2nd yellow card for Leonardo Belardi, the Phocéens still managed to bring back the 3 points from their trip to Lyon by winning 3-2. Geneva’s Ulisses Garcia, author of the 2-1, and his teammates share the lead in Ligue 1 with PSG and Monaco.

Roberto De Zerbi seems to have transformed Marseille. Arriving this summer from Brighton, the Italian coach has had a flying start to the season.

With a numerical advantage throughout the game, Lyon dominated outrageously, but unable to capitalise on their advantage – including a penalty not converted by Lacazette at the end of the first half – they ended up being surprised.

And in the 95th minute, OM took the lead again

Indeed, although Lyon thought they had done the hardest part by opening the score thanks to Caleta-Car in the 53rd, the Marseillais did not give up. It was first Lirola who equalized in the 69th before Garcia gave the advantage to his colors in the 82nd.

And in an extra time full of twists and turns, Lyon equalized thanks to Cherki in the 93rd minute. But that was without taking into account the strength of character of OM who, thanks to a success from Rowe in the 95th minute, left with the 3 points.
