OM faced a tough challenge against Troyes, falling behind with a goal from D. Marcos in the 70th minute. Before the match, discontented OM supporters demonstrated outside the Vélodrome, calling for the resignation of sports director José Anigo and club president Vincent Labrune, leading to heated exchanges.
Despite the adversity, Marseille managed to turn the game around and secure three crucial points, taking advantage of PSG’s loss to Reims and Lyon’s draw against Brest. Although OM is still facing challenges, the victory provides some relief. The club is now 5 points behind PSG and 3 behind Lyon, but Saint-Etienne is closely trailing in 4th place, just two points behind OM, competing for a Champions League spot.
OM’s comeback featured goals from A. Gignac (82nd) and N. Nkoulou (82nd).
