OM shows the way
On Friday night at La Meinau, Olympique de Marseille secured a hard-fought victory (2-1) against Strasbourg. A win snatched in the final minutes thanks to Aubameyang and Murillo, which allowed De Zerbi’s men to put pressure on their direct rivals. Three points that put OM at the top of the standings even before PSG, Lyon, and Monaco took the stage.
Lyon pulls off the heist in Lille
The real shock of the weekend came from OL. On LOSC’s pitch, the Lyonnais struck as early as the 13th minute thanks to Morton, perfectly set up by Tagliafico. After that, Fonseca locked things down and Greif delivered the performance of his life. Result: a ruthless smash-and-grab (0-1) that takes Lyon level with PSG at the top of Ligue 1. A strong statement in an already electric championship.
PSG responds, Monaco stumble
On Saturday, Paris never flinched. Focused and disciplined, the Parisians earned a solid win that confirms their upward momentum. Meanwhile, Monaco missed the chance to stay close to the top two: a frustrating defeat that could prove costly later in the season.
Brest confirms, Le Havre and Metz cancel each other out
In the other games, Brest pulled off a fine result with an away win in Angers (0-2). Labeau Lascary, who came close to signing for SCO this summer, opened the scoring before Del Castillo sealed the match with a penalty. A victory that puts the Bretons back in the top half of the table.
Le Havre and Metz, for their part, could not be separated (1-1) in a scrappy match, but one that matters in the relegation battle.
Standings: OM on the podium, everything wide open
At the end of this dramatic weekend, Ligue 1 is more unpredictable than ever. OM currently sit in 3rd place behind PSG and OL, but ahead of Monaco. Everything is still to play for, and the upcoming matchdays already promise new fireworks.
