Overview
- Lille won 1-0 thanks to Ethan Mbappé’s 10th‑minute finish from Nabil Bentaleb’s pass after a misguided rush out by goalkeeper Gerónimo Rulli.
- Lille drew level with Marseille on 29 points and extended their winning run to four in all competitions, staying fourth on goal difference behind OM.
- Marseille created little until the closing stages, with Berke Özer denying Mason Greenwood and Geoffrey Kondogbia to preserve the clean sheet.
- Roberto De Zerbi criticized his team’s display as deservedly beaten, reinforcing concerns over OM’s recurring late‑game lapses in recent weeks.
- Lille highlighted its youth project before kickoff by confirming 18-year-old Ayyoub Bouaddi’s contract extension through 2029.
