00:00And Alexandre Lacazette, who scored in their previous 1-0 win over Marseille last season,
00:07will once again, the key.
00:13So the first Olimpico of the season is underway as Lyon look to recover from a slow start to the campaign
00:19that'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
00:29who themselves are targeting a place at the top of the table.
00:40And just in case there were any doubts, had anticipated,
00:44it looks like Marseille are playing with a back three.
00:46Balerdi up against Lacazette here.
00:50Lacazette turning, Balerdi, now he's on a yellow.
00:54Leonardo Balerdi is going to be sent off inside five minutes.
00:59It's a disaster for Marseille.
01:02Lacazette was too skillful, too clever.
01:06Lacazette gets there first.
01:12Lacazette's got a little bit of Balerdi's shirt as well, but...
01:18He had to move into the ascendancy in this game.
01:21Abner's cross, the header down, the keeper's felt it.
01:25Well, whistle.
01:31Veritu 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 Dorban with the acrobatics.
01:48Two goals here against Strasbourg a couple of weeks ago.
01:55He was a whisker away that.
02:04The header is easily taken by Rudy.
02:07Lyon so dominant, can they get the goal? Maybe here.
02:20Orban denied by Rudy.
02:28Pierre Sarge finding his feet as a head coach after...
02:33Oh, Lyon in here. Lyon to take the lead.
02:37Beat the defender.
02:40Really good run through the middle from Tolisso.
02:44Rangier in the right place to clear the attempted shot.
02:51Again Marseille survive.
02:58Now Greenwood.
03:01Mason Greenwood.
03:04Defending from Clinton Mata, 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, Perrido, outstanding.
03:24Ended up qualifying for the Europa League. Lyon here's Maitland-Niles.
03:29This is Tolisso.
03:33A home match against Olympiacos coming up on Thursday night in their first European outing.
03:49Marseille coming forward.
03:51I think Wai is offside, the flag has stayed down for the moment.
03:54Goalkeeper saves it and now the flag goes up.
03:57Through quickly enough here.
04:03Fraction offside Elie Wai.
04:11Oh Wai with the cutback, it's off the line.
04:15Go in front with just 10 men.
04:17Elie Wai's touch off to Kone was good.
04:27Oh Greenwood.
04:29Greenwood bursting through and he was taken down cynically by Clinton Matter.
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 chipping it beautifully to Tolisso.
04:50Was that a handball from Rangier?
04:53Strong appeals from the Groupama Stadium crowd.
04:56Be told by the VAR.
05:01If he's made a mistake here.
05:03If this is a handball from Rangier.
05:05I think it strikes him on his arm.
05:06His arm is up.
05:07This could well be a penalty.
05:11No, Benoit Bastien is going to have a look.
05:13So I 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.
05:26And they're showing him the handball.
05:34And it doesn't look good, does it, for Rangier.
05:39It is a penalty to Lyon.
05:46Lacazette against Rulli.
05:49It's saved by Rulli.
05:50Lacazette again and Marseille survive.
05:54Incredible scenes.
05:56Well.
05:59You just expect Lacazette so often.
06:01But Rulli went the right way.
06:02Got down exceptionally well.
06:05And Lyon Brassier deserves credit as well for denying Lacazette the follow up.
06:11It is still nil-nil.
06:14Here in the Olympico.
06:18Well, that is it.
06:19A breathless first half of football between Lyon and Marseille.
06:26And we're still at nil-nil here at Groupama Stadium.
06:29With Marseille down to 10 men after Valerdi's red card.
06:32And Lyon had a golden chance as Lacazette missed a last minute penalty.
06:43So Lyon have 45 minutes to try to find a way through against the 10 men of Olympique de Marseille.
06:52Lyon looking for just their second win this season.
06:57Only Lille coming up shortly.
06:59Lost in Portugal against Sporting.
07:05Across from Veritu.
07:06It's missed by Luis Enrique.
07:08This is Maitland-Niles.
07:09Ainsley Maitland-Niles across goal.
07:14I think he was outpost.
07:18Not a million miles away.
07:21Can they find a way past Rulli?
07:31Well played.
07:34Oh, the cross is a good one.
07:35And Lyon have found a way past Rulli.
07:40Doing his best not to celebrate the goal against his former club.
07:44But he is absolutely fantastic.
07:47Doing his best not to celebrate the goal against his former club.
07:50But he is absolutely delighted.
07:57It's his first league goal for Lyon.
08:02And it owes a lot to this superb play on the right flank.
08:09Clinton Matta sliding it.
08:11Dispossessing Valentin Rongier and then producing a superb cross as well.
08:18Celentissar attacked it.
08:21To Acone.
08:26Picked off by Maitland-Niles.
08:28Away goes the Englishman.
08:29Streaming over halfway.
08:30He's got Lacazette ahead of him.
08:31Lovely pass.
08:32Lacazette for two.
08:34It's another good stop from Geronimo Rulli.
08:38From Ainsley Maitland-Niles.
08:39Streaming over halfway.
08:42The pass was inch perfect.
08:44And Lacazette again denied.
08:48Could have had a hat-trick already tonight.
08:50Alexandre Lacazette.
08:53Behind Rulli's goal.
08:56Looking to suck another one into the net.
08:58It's deep towards Celentissar who heads it back across.
09:01And Lacazette gets there.
09:04Couldn't quite get the ball away from Rulli.
09:08And he's going to be booked as well.
09:11Alexandre Lacazette.
09:18And now Lyon are coming forward.
09:19Possibilities for Lacazette.
09:22Tolisso.
09:26This is Vera too.
09:28And the shot comes in.
09:30From Maitland-Niles.
09:31It was comfortable though in the end.
09:39Poidier.
09:44Dancier for Marseille.
09:47Luis Enrique.
09:48Trying to exchange passes with Garcia.
09:50Or there could be a chance here for Marseille.
09:52A big chance!
09:53And it's been turned in by Paul Lirola.
09:57Unbelievable.
09:59The Marseille substitute takes advantage of a lapse at the back from Lyon.
10:05Nowhere really.
10:11Is there going to be
10:13an issue with the offside?
10:15Paul Lirola held off Tagliafico.
10:18Got his body in the right position and just steered it into the back of the net.
10:22It's a great finish.
10:30Here is the young Belgian.
10:32Fofana.
10:38Played away from the cluster of bodies.
10:40Nuama now.
10:41Shot 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 Kampogbia.
11:09Or rather Murillo it was who cleared.
11:11Now Maitland-Niles.
11:14Left foot.
11:19Now, good ball for Lirola.
11:22Early cross from him.
11:23And a chance at the front post for Garcia!
11:27He has got in!
11:31Marseille with 10 men
11:33have turned this game on its head.
11:37Incredible from Di Zerbi's team.
11:40The Italian coach is ecstatic.
11:44It might have been a bit of fortune about the finish.
11:48Lovely ball to Lirola.
11:50His cross, a searching one.
11:53I'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.
12:07So far.
12:12Nuama.
12:15Matta on the overlap.
12:16Good cross.
12:17And now Mikotate!
12:20He just snatched at the header
12:21and it's got a big opportunity
12:24for Lyon's Georgian international.
12:29It's on themselves and they're going to have to do that again.
12:34Fofana.
12:37Fofana'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.
12:58By 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 Scherke
13:19who denies Marseille from close range.
13:26Just days after extending his Lyon contract
13:29Ryan Scherke starts to repay the faith
13:32with a late, late leveller against Marseille.
13:38Lyon will feel it's the least they deserve today
13:41given the amount of
13:44chances they have created.
13:49Low cross from Matta.
13:51So Lyon and Marseille look like they will
13:54share 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!
14:14What 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 signing
14:41from Norwich City.
14:45What a way to open your...
14:49It's a really bad clearance by the way
14:51from Lucas Perry but
14:53he could not have imagined
14:54that he'd be punished like that.
14:59Rowe, a loan signing
15:00with a €15 million obligation
15:03for Marseille.
15:04They will be
15:06rubbing their hands
15:07if he scores many more goals
15:08like that one.
15:12Lyon 2, Marseille 3.
15:24Timers run out.
15:26Marseille.
15:29And the match is over.
15:30What a finish.
15:32Unbelievable.
15:33What we've seen
15:34in the last second,
15:35in the last minute.
15:38Marseille
15:39with one less man.
15:40They've found a way
15:41to win this encounter
15:43and they are the new leaders
15:44of this competition.
15:46Thank you for joining us.
15:47See you the next time
