Marseille Bounce Back with Convincing 4-0 Win Over Nice
After suffering their first defeat of the season at the Vélodrome against Montpellier two weeks ago, Olympique de Marseille made a statement on Friday by delivering a dominant 4-0 victory over Nice in the opening match of Ligue 1’s fourth round.
Dimitri Payet was the star of the show, netting two goals to spearhead Marseille’s resurgence. Speaking to TF1 on Sunday, Payet reflected on the team’s recent transformation.
“Something happened in front of our home crowd,” he said. “I don’t know if it was a turning point, but whatever it is, we need to keep this momentum going.”
The emphatic win has raised hopes that Marcelo Bielsa’s tactical approach is starting to yield results. Marseille will be eager to maintain this form as the season progresses.
