Reims vs Marseilleg – Marseille’s incredible run of success continued on Wednesday night when they beat Nantes 3-2 at Stade Orange Velodrome after surviving a tough test. Marseille got off to a shaky start, behind on two times throughout the game, but they eventually confirmed their supremacy on the field with a second-half comeback. Amine Harit scored the game-winner 15 minutes from time, and Dmitri Payet added two goals from the penalty spot on the night.
Jorge Sampaoli’s team had won nine of their previous ten games in all competitions. The Argentine coach has fostered this offensive mentality in Marseille’s players, who have responded admirably since the squad reached the UEFA Europa League semifinals.
Marseille are six points clear of the three teams now sharing third place in Ligue 1 (Rennes, Strasbourg, and Monaco), but they still need to finish in the top three to qualify for the UEFA Champions League next season.
On Sunday evening, Sampaoli’s team will travel to Stade Auguste-Delaune II to face Reims in Ligue 1’s final match of the day. On Wednesday evening, Reims won their ninth game of the season, thanks to center-back Yunis Abdelhamid’s late stoppage-time winner against Lille (a 2-1 win).
