PSG beat Olympique de Marselha 1-2 in Ligue 1 after a late second-half burst decided a game that had been scoreless for more than an hour. The visitors led, were pulled back, and went in front again within eight minutes, then held on after the home side were shown a red card.

Match Summary

The first half produced no goals. Timothy Weah was booked for Olympique de Marselha in the 32nd minute, and PSG picked up a yellow in the 39th, with no player named for that caution in the match data.

The deadlock lasted until the 66th minute, when PSG scored. The scorer was not listed in match data. Olympique de Marselha leveled in the 72nd minute, again without a named scorer. Two minutes later PSG scored once more, and that scorer was not listed either, leaving the score at 1-2.

The home side were then shown a red card in the 77th minute, with the player not identified in the data. Keyliane Abdallah was cautioned in the 81st minute and Angel Gomes in the 90th as the visitors closed out the result.

Key Moments

The cluster of goals between the 66th and 74th minutes flipped the match twice in a short window. The equalizer looked like a foothold, but the reply two minutes later left Olympique de Marselha chasing again with little time to reset.

The red card that followed, only three minutes after PSG's second goal, mattered because it removed a player while the hosts still needed a goal. From that point the remaining yellows to Keyliane Abdallah and Angel Gomes were signs of a finish the home side could not control.

Match Statistics

PSG's chance volume explained why they could strike twice so late. They recorded 31 shots to 12, 10 on target to four, and 4.43 expected goals to 1.29, plus a 7-3 edge in corners. Olympique de Marselha ended with three yellow cards and one red against a single PSG yellow.
