00:00And Alexandre Lacazette who scored in their previous one-nil win over Marseille last season
00:07Will once again...
00:09The key
00:13So the first Olimpico of the season is underway as Lyon look to recover
00:17From a slow start to the campaign that's seen them take just four points from their four opening fixtures
00:24What better way to respond than by defeating the arch-rival Marseille
00:30Who themselves are targeting a place at the top of the table
00:40And just in case there were any doubts
00:43Had anticipated, it looks like Marseille are playing with a back three
00:46Balerdi up against Lacazette here
00:51Lacazette turning Balerdi, now he's on a yellow
00:54Leonardo Balerdi is going to be sent off inside five minutes
00:58It's a disaster for Marseille
01:01But Lacazette was too skillful, too clever
01:05Lacazette gets there first
01:11Lacazette's got a little bit of Balerdi's shirt as well but
01:17He had to move into the ascendancy in this game
01:20Abner's cross, the header down, the keeper spilt it
01:28Well
01:29Whistle
01:31Very two to deliver
01:34Flat delivery that causes problems, the overhead against the bar
01:39Lyon so close to opening the scoring
01:45It's Giff Dourban with the acrobatics
01:52Two goals here against Strasbourg a couple of weeks ago, he was a whisker away there
01:58Whistle
02:04The header is easily taken by Rooney
02:08Whistle
02:17Lyon so dominant, can they get the goal? Maybe here
02:20Aubin, denied by Rooney
02:24Two goals here against Strasbourg
02:27Whistle
02:28Pierre Sarge finding his feet as a head coach after a
02:33Oh Lyon in here, Lyon to take the lead
02:37Beat the defender
02:38Whistle
02:40Really good run through the middle from Thalyssa
02:44Rangier in the right place to clear the attempted shot
02:51Again Marseille survive
02:57Whistle
02:59Now Greenwood
03:01Mason Greenwood
03:04The defending from Clinton Mattock, Greenwood still gets it across though
03:07And there's a chance for Rangier
03:09What a save that is
03:11Rangier
03:14Terrific play from Mason Greenwood to hook the ball back on Rangier
03:19Got a good shot away, Perry though, outstanding
03:22Whistle
03:24Ended up qualifying for the Europa League, Lyon here's
03:28Maitland-Niles
03:29This is Thalyssa
03:32A home match against Olympiacos coming up on Thursday night in their first European outing
03:49Marseille coming forward
03:51I think Waihi's offside, the flag has stayed down for the moment
03:55Goalkeeper saves it and now the flag goes up
03:57Through quickly enough here
03:58Whistle
04:03Fraction offside Elie Waihi
04:11Oh Waihi with the cutback, it's off the line
04:15Go in front with just 10 men
04:17Elie Waihi's touch off to Kone was good
04:22Whistle
04:27Oh Greenwood
04:28Greenwood bursting through and he was taken down cynically by Clinton Mattock
04:33Yellow card
04:34Into space creating danger
04:3810 men
04:39Here's Maitland-Niles
04:41Maitland-Niles again
04:44Now Lacazette
04:47Lacazette shipping it beautifully to Thalyssa
04:50Was that a handball from Rongier?
04:53Strong appeals from the Groupama Stadium crowd
04:56Be told by the VAR
05:01If he's made a mistake here, if this is a handball from Rongier
05:04I think it strikes him on his arm, his arm is up
05:07This could well be a penalty
05:11No, Benoit Bastien's going to have a look so
05:13I assume Lacazette was not offside in the build up
05:17And he is going to have a look at the incident
05:21Which means he's been told that he may well have made a clear mistake
05:25And they're showing him the handball
05:29Handball
05:34And it doesn't look good does it for Rongier
05:39It is a penalty to Lyon
05:45Whistle
05:46Lacazette against Rulli
05:49It's saved by Rulli, Lacazette again and Marseille survive
05:54Incredible scenes
05:56Well
05:59You just expect Lacazette so often
06:01But Rulli went the right way, got down
06:04Exceptionally well
06:05And Lilian Brassier deserves credit as well for denying Lacazette the follow up
06:11It is still nil-nil
06:14Here in the Olimpico
06:15Whistle
06:18Well that is it, a breathless first half of football between Lyon and Marseille
06:25And we're still at nil-nil here at Groupama Stadium
06:28With Marseille down to 10 men after Valerdi's red card
06:32And Lyon had a golden chance as Lacazette missed a last minute penalty
06:39Whistle
06:41Whistle
06:43So Lyon have 45 minutes to try to find a way through against the 10 men of Olympique de Marseille
06:53Lyon looking for just their second win this season
06:58Only Lille coming up shortly lost in Portugal against Sporting
07:06Across from Veritu, it's missed by Luis Enrique
07:09This is Maitland-Niles, Ainslie Maitland-Niles across goal
07:14I think he was outpost
07:19Not a million miles away
07:27Can they find a way past Rulli?
07:35Well played
07:37Oh the cross is a good one and Lyon have found a way past Rulli
07:43Duje Celetesa
07:46Doing his best not to celebrate the goal against his former club but he is absolutely delighted
07:53At last
07:57It's his first league goal for Lyon
08:01And it owes a lot to this superb play on the right flank
08:07Clinton Mata sliding it
08:11Dispossessing Valentin Rongier and then producing a superb cross as well
08:18And Celetesa attacked it
08:21To Kounet
08:26Picked off by Maitland-Niles
08:28Away goes the Englishman streaming over halfway, he's got Lacazette ahead of him, lovely pass
08:32Lacazette for two
08:34It's another good stop from Geronimo Rulli
08:37From Ainslie Maitland-Niles streaming over halfway
08:41The pass was inch perfect
08:43And Lacazette again denied
08:48Could have had a hat trick already tonight, Alexander Lacazette
08:53Behind Rulli's goal
08:55Looking to suck another one into the net
08:58It's deep towards Celetesa who heads it back across and Lacazette gets there
09:03Couldn't quite get the ball away from Rulli
09:08And he's going to be booked as well
09:10Alexandre Lacazette
09:17And now Lyon are coming forward, possibilities for Lacazette
09:22Tolisso
09:26This is Vera too
09:28And the shot comes in
09:29From Maitland-Niles, it was comfortable though in the end
09:33Oh! Oh! Oh!
09:39Poirier
09:44Garcia for Marseille
09:47Lewis Henry trying to exchange passes with Garcia
09:50Oh, there could be a chance here for Marseille
09:52A big chance!
09:53And it's been turned in by Ponderola
09:57Unbelievable
09:59The Marseille substitute
10:00takes advantage of a lapse at the back from Leon
10:05Nowhere really
10:11Is there gonna be
10:13an issue with the offside?
10:15Paulirola held off Tagliafico
10:18got his body in the right position and just steered it
10:21into the back of the net, it's a great finish
10:30Here is the young Belgian
10:33Fofana
10:38Played away from the cluster of bodies
10:41Nuama now, shots on for Nuama
10:44It flashes
10:45Fofana and Nuama almost having an instant impact
10:51Really did catch this very well
10:55Lucas Perry was beaten that time
10:57Or rather, sorry, Geronimo Rulli was beaten this time
11:06Good cross from Nuama, but Campogbia
11:09or rather Murillo it was who cleared
11:11Now Maitland-Niles
11:14Left foot
11:18Now, good ball for Lerola
11:21Early cross from him
11:22and a chance at the front post for Garcia
11:26He has got in
11:30Marseille with 10 men
11:32have turned this game on its head
11:36Incredible from Di Zerbi's team
11:39The Italian coach is ecstatic
11:44It might have been a bit of fortune about the finish
11:47Lovely ball to Lerola
11:50His cross, a searching one
11:52I'll give him credit Garcia
11:54He side-footed the ball
11:57Kicking it down into the ground
11:59It's bounced up which makes it difficult for Perry
12:06In half so far
12:11Nuama
12:15Matta on the overlap
12:16Good cross
12:17And now Mikotate
12:19He just snatched at the header
12:21and it's got a big opportunity
12:24for Lyon's Georgian international
12:29Tom themselves and they're going to have to do that again
12:34Forfana
12:37Forfana's cross is a very good one
12:42It's just not falling
12:45A header back from Maitland-Niles
12:47Unselfish from him
12:48He could have gone for goal himself
12:51Set up Mikotate
12:53Who again fires over
12:58It's by Lyon
13:04Maitland-Niles chipping in
13:07This is Nuama
13:10This is Matta
13:11Matta's cross and Lyon have done it
13:15It's the local lad Ryan Cherki
13:19Who denies Marseille from close range
13:23Just days after extending his Lyon contract
13:29Ryan Cherki starts to repay the faith
13:32with a late, late leveller against Marseille
13:39Lyon will feel it's the least they deserve today
13:41given the amount of chances they have created
13:49Low cross from Matta
13:52So Lyon and Marseille look like they will share the points tonight
13:57Another dramatic Olympico in the Rhone Valley
14:02And it's not over just yet
14:03John Rowe
14:07Still John Rowe
14:08Goes for goal!
14:11What a strike!
14:13What a strike!
14:15From the young Englishman
14:18This is absolute madness
14:21Marseille with 10 men
14:24Pegged back to 2-2
14:25They come straight back out
14:28And they've surely won it now
14:33And what a strike!
14:35From the 21 year old John Rowe
14:38A 15 million euro signing
14:41From Norwich City
14:45What a way to open your...
14:47It's a really bad clearance by the way from Lucas Perry
14:50But he could not have imagined that he'd be punished like that
14:57Rowe, a loan signing with a 15 million euro obligation
15:02For Marseille
15:03They will be rubbing their hands if he scores many more goals like that one
15:11Lyon 2, Marseille 3
15:13Lyon 2, Marseille 3
15:24Time has run out
15:26Marseille
15:29And the match is over
15:30What a finish
15:32Unbelievable
15:33What we've seen in the last second
15:35In the last minute
15:38Marseille with one less man
15:40They found a way to win this encounter
15:43And they are the new leaders of this competition
