There was always going to be one club who made the most of the World Cup interruption and challenged the elite this season. A few clubs on the fringes of Europe made this calculation in the summer transfer window and, instead of selling players, they held firm. Lens and Strasbourg were chief among these sides in Ligue 1.
Marseille came from behind to beat Lille 2-1 at the Stade Velodrome to protect their unbeaten start to the Ligue 1 campaign. The hosts went behind for the first time this season when Ismaily broke the deadlock early in the first half to give Lille the lead. Ad Ismaily was on alert to steer home a loose ball beyond a helpless Paul Lopez.
Tottenham defeated ten man Marseille 2-0 as Champions League action returned to North London. It was a first half of few chances as Spurs lacked a killer pass and the creativity to unlock the defence of the Ligue 1 outfit. They did excellently to frustrate the hosts and silence a noisy crowd dictating the ball for large periods.
LONDON : Tottenham Hotspur have been penalised with a hectic schedule compared with other teams and must speak to the Premier League to ease their burden and avoid often playing three times in a week, manager Antonio Conte said on Tuesday.
Marseille and Arsenal loanees, there’s just something about them. In fact not even loanees, Matteo Guendouzi liked it so much he made the move permanent and Alexis Sanchez, once a darling of the Emirates, also has made it his home following his release from Inter Milan.
PARIS : Alexis Sanchez showed his worth as his third goal of the season helped Olympique de Marseille beat promoted AJ Auxerre 2-0 to move provisionally top of the Ligue 1 standings on Saturday.
Marseille have become something of a basket case in the Frank McCourt era. Under the American’s ownership, the club have furiously churned through managers, including some of the most respected names in the game and, despite turning in some decent performances in the league, they have come no closer to winning Ligue 1 or even the Coupe de France. After the ugly training ground invasion last year, the dramatic departure of Jorge Sampaoli this summer and their wretched displays in pre-season, last season’s second-place in Ligue 1 was in danger of being ignored.
Juventus have signed Poland striker Arkadiusz Milik from Ligue 1 outfit Marseille on loan with an option to buy for 7 million euros ($6.9 million) it was announced on Friday.
