Overview

  • Nayef Aguerd headed in after five minutes from a deflected Mason Greenwood cross as PSG goalkeeper Lucas Chevalier misjudged the ball.
  • Marseille threatened a second with Amine Gouiri hitting the bar and a first‑half strike ruled out for offside, while Gerónimo Rulli produced key saves to preserve the lead.
  • The victory is Marseille’s first home league win over PSG since 2011 and their first home league goal against them since 2017.
  • PSG’s unbeaten start ended, dropping them behind Monaco on goals scored, with both clubs level on points.
  • The match was delayed 24 hours due to storm warnings, overlapping with the Ballon d'Or ceremony, as Roberto De Zerbi was sent off late and Luis Enrique rejected suggestions of distraction.
