BUUUUUT FROM BEN YEDDER, MONACO RETURNS TO 1-1!!!
The class of Ben Yedder, who deceives Pau Lopez with a wonderful panenka! The Marseille goalkeeper had anticipated on one side, the French striker swiped his ball right in the center to equalize!!
Penalty for Monaco! (0-1)
Beaten in explosiveness, Balerdi destabilizes Diatta who collapses in the Marseille area, the referee does not hesitate and designates the penalty spot!
Monaco head in the bucket
This opener put a blow behind the heads of the Monegasques, who no longer managed to get dangerously close to the opposing surface against the aggressive Marseillais.
State
This is the 5th goal scored by Alexis Sanchez this season in Ligue 1, and what a goal! The Marseille public present at Louis-II is over the moon.
BUUUUUUUT FROM SANCHEZ, 0-1 FOR OM!!!
Very dangerous free kick conceded by Badiashile, full axis at 20 meters. Alexis Sanchez takes care of shooting it and sends a marvelous curling shot towards the left corner of Nübel, who can do absolutely nothing, Marseille is in front!
State
Monaco have won each of their last 2 Ligue 1 games without conceding a goal, and have not made the pass of 3 since March-April 2021 (5th in a row).
Pau Lopez decisive in front of Volland! (0-0)
The first shot on target of the match is to be credited to the Monegasques and Volland, launched at the right tempo behind the defense on the left. The angle is reduced but the German takes his chance with a dry shot on the ground, Pau Lopez pushes back to his near post!
And Clauss next door! (0-0)
Monaco gets into it and offers its opponent opportunities on a set. Golovin feels badly on an opposing crossbar and his header back benefits Clauss. In an eccentric position, the Marseille piston arms a cross shot from the right which spins next to the opposite post!
Leg hits just above! (0-0)
The beautiful situations pile up for the Marseillais, who could well end up regretting not being more precise in the last gesture. Found in an attacking position in the area on a handover from Alexis Sanchez, Gigot does not lie down enough on his ball and hits hard above the goal!
No dead time
Lots of pace from both teams since the start. Each team seeks to hurt as soon as the ball is recovered, and to quickly invest the last 30 opposing meters.
Diatta took it for his rank
Well shaken on a virile intervention by Balerdi, Diatta remains on the ground near the opposing surface. The healers intervene to put him back on his feet.
Camara too imprecise
The ball is a bit long for Volland on the right but the German gives himself to recover and serve back Disasi. His cross arrives at the far post on Golovine, who temporizes before passing for Camara who arrives launched. His first intention attempt flew away.
State
Monaco have 59.6% of shots on target in Ligue 1 this season, the highest percentage. Only Toulouse (209) has also suffered more shots than ASM in the top flight this season (206).
Guendouzi’s head next door! (0-0)
New big opportunity for the Marseillais, again with a very precise Clauss in charge in the exercise of the center this evening. Guendouzi is wanted at the far post and his unbalanced header passes to the left of Nübel’s goal!
Fofana does not catch the frame
Positioned high on a placed attack, ASM is dangerous against a wait-and-see Marseille defense. Poor control in the box from Volland benefits a setback for Fofana, who arms without control of the right but shoots too much to the right.
Monaco tries to react against
Good deep ball from Disasi towards Volland, in the duel with Rongier on the right. The striker crosses towards the surface for Ben Yedder, but Gigot intervenes to clear for a corner.
Ben Yedder already not far from yellow
Late on his intervention on Balerdi, Ben Yedder commits a fault not far from the center line. The referee is lenient for the start of the match.
Tavares already saw her in it! (0-0)
Already a huge situation for the Marseillais! The first Olympian attack is fast, the imbalance is created thanks to this well-felt cross from Harit towards Clauss. This one has a boulevard to the right and quickly centers towards the opposite piston in the box. Nuno Tavares springs at the far post but takes over a few meters from goal!
Let’s go to Louis-II! (0-0)
It was the Monegasques who kicked off this closing poster for the 15th day of Ligue 1!
The temperature is rising!
The kick-off is imminent, the players entered the lawn of Louis-II with the referee of the meeting, Benoît Bastien.
Confirm and finish in style
Monaco confirmed its improvement by winning in its last two Ligue 1 matches, to return to the top ranks and get closer to the podium. OM, for their part, put an end to a difficult last period by winning Olympico against Lyon last Sunday (1-0), and have the same number of points as the Principality club, ahead on goal difference .
Clash between pretenders to Europe

If the road will still be long afterwards with 23 games to be played on the return of Qatar, the poster for this Sunday evening can allow one of the two teams to get back to the foot of the podium, one point behind third place in the event of of success.
The line-up of Monaco

Nübel – Maripan, Disasi, Badiashile – Diatta, Camara, Fofana, Henrique – Golovin, Ben Yedder, Volland.
The composition of OM
The Blues Jordan Veretout and Mattéo Guendouzi, expected in Qatar, are holders in an eleven Marseille without surprise. Dimitri Payet is still on the bench at the start.
Lopez – Mbemba, Gigot, Balerdi – Clauss, Veretout, Rongier, Tavares – Guendouzi, Harit – Sanchez.
A big night for Golovin?
