VIDEO: Paul Pogba gives emotional speech to Monaco crowd after massive Ligue 1 win over PSG

Provides sensational assist Nadir assisted once to go with three shots (zero on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and one corner in Saturday's 2-2 draw against Toulouse.

Impact Nadir injected life into Marseille's attack after the break, getting on the ball between Toulouse's lines and driving at the back three. He twice went close himself around the hour mark, contributing to a season high of three shots against the TeFeCe. His biggest contribution came in the 66th minute with the sensational through ball in behind Djibril Sidibe that sent Igor Paixao racing clear for the equalizer. Nadir had his best outing with Marseille on Saturday, contributing to numerous season highs with three chances created, two tackles and two interceptions, highlighted by a motivation that we did not see from him earlier in the campaign. That said, due to competition, he will remain limited in terms of starts for the Olympians moving forward.

Brillant outing again Aubameyang assisted once to go with four shots (one on goal), two crosses (one accurate) and three chances created in Saturday's 2-2 draw versus Toulouse.

Impact Aubameyang had a brilliant outing again against the TeFeCe although he often dropped to link play and dealt with a packed Toulouse backline. His moment came in the 74th minute when he drifted wide right and delivered a superb hanging cross that Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg met to give the lead to OM. That piece of quality looked like it would win the game before Santiago Hidalgo's late leveller. Aubameyang attempted four shots and created three chances to tie his season high. The veteran is showing impressive form in recent weeks having contributed to at least one goal in the last four games across all competitions with four goals and three assists while shooting 19 times and creating seven chances.

Scores clever goal against TeFeCe Paixao scored one goal to go with two shots (one on goal) and six crosses (zero accurate) in Saturday's 2-2 draw against Toulouse.

Impact Paixao woke the stadium up in the 66th minute, latching onto Bilal Nadir's perfectly weighted ball in behind Djibril Sidibe. He cut across the full-back, rounded Guillaume Restes outside the box and calmly rolled the ball into the empty net to score the equalizer. Beyond the goal he was the main outlet on the left, constantly looking to attack space once Marseille tilted the pitch, contributing as well to a season high six crosses and remaining an active presence in the defensive area with two tackles, two interceptions and one clearance.

Scores header in draw Hojbjerg scored one goal to go with three shots (two on goal) in Saturday's 2-2 draw versus Toulouse. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 75th minute.

Impact Hojbjerg kept driving play from midfield and was rewarded in the 74th minute, timing his run perfectly to meet Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang's long cross with a guided header into the far corner to give the lead to Marseille. This marked his second goal of the season and looked like a deliverance since he attempted numerous times this season with 20 shots in 13 Ligue 1 appearances. Hojbjerg is showing a better figure in recent games after a difficult start of the season in terms of global performances, likely due to adapting his play to his new teammates.

Concedes two in draw Rulli had two saves and allowed two goals in Saturday's 2-2 draw versus Toulouse.

Impact Rulli had almost no chance on Emersonn's thunderous opener in the 14th minute, beaten from close range after his defense failed to stop the run. He was also saved by the bar on a lobbed effort from Aron Donnum in the second half and quickly responded with a strong one-on-one stop against Emersonn as Toulouse nearly doubled their lead. Once Marseille turned the match, he spent long spells simply managing Toulouse counters. In stoppage time he was caught by Santiago Hidalgo's glancing header from a Mark McKenzie's long throw, as he did not analyze his position well and was beaten in an amateur way. Rulli will hope to bounce back against Lille on Friday at Pierre Mauroy.

Marseille draws with Toulouse and blows chance to top Ligue 1 after PSG defeat at Monaco

Starts Saturday Aguerd (groin) is in the starting XI for Saturday's match against Toulouse.

Impact Aguerd was expected to be an option Saturday and has made the call, not just an option, but also finding a spot on the bench. This comes after two matches out, returning to his starting role immediately. That said, he should maintain this role, starting in all but one game, he has been an option for this campaign.

Impact Aguerd was expected to return for the AFCON in December but is well ahead of his schedule since he should make the squad for Saturday's clash against Toulouse. This is great news for the Olympians since Aguerd is an undisputed starter in the backline and had decent performances since joining the Canebiere. That said, no risks will be taken with the center-back in upcoming fixtures, suggesting he should find a bench role against the TeFeCe and see some minutes off bench.

Provides assist in victory Weah assisted once to go with six crosses (two accurate) and four chances created in Tuesday's 2-1 victory versus Newcastle United.

Impact Weah had a brilliant outing against Newcastle on Tuesday at the Velodrome, being intensively active on his right flank and making numerous runs to help both the attack and the defense. In the 50th minute, he drove down the right and delivered an accurate cross that Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang turned in at the near post to give the lead for the Olympians and which resulted to be the match winner. His runs repeatedly pulled Newcastle's left side out of shape and helped pin them back after the equalizer. The American contributed to season highs four chances created and six crosses and was decent in the defensive area, totaling two tackles and four clearances. Weah used to start on the left flank since the beginning of the season but his versatility allows him to play on the right and given his recent performances, that starting spot on the right will likely remain his if he stays fit moving forward.

Sensational first UCL appearance Bakola assisted once to go with one shot (zero on goal), two crosses (zero accurate) and one chance created in Tuesday's 2-1 win over Newcastle United. In addition, he was given a...

Impact Bakola made his first Champions League start and appearance at only 17-years-old on Tuesday against Newcastle and had a sensational outing, supplying the long ball through the lines that launched Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang's 46th minute equalizer. He showed composure to pick the pass rather than simply clearing under pressure at the start of the second half. In the first period, he worked hard defensively as Marseille struggled to impose themselves. The youngster was chosen over Angel for his physical which was highlighted by his three deemed fouls against the Magpies. Bakola had a mature outing for his young age and will likely earn many more starts with the Phoceans during the second part of the season, as he is set to become a fans favorite already.

Scores brace in victory Aubameyang scored two goals to go with eight shots (four on goal) in Tuesday's 2-1 win versus Newcastle United.

Impact Aubameyang missed a couple of good first half chances, including a volley that Nick Pope tipped away, but exploded after the break. He equalised in the 46th minute by racing onto Darryl Bakola's long curling pass, skipping past Nick Pope outside the box and curling in from a very tight angle on the right flank. Four minutes later, he met Timothy Weah's cross with a sharp near post half volley to make it 2-1, enough to secure three precious points in the Champions League. At 36 years old, he completely transformed both the match and Marseille's Champions League run with a season high eight shots. The striker is in incredible form, having scored four goals and delivered two assists in the last three games across all competitions for the Olympians.

Impressive outing again in UCL Rulli recorded seven saves and allowed one goal in Tuesday's 2-1 victory against Newcastle United.

Impact Rulli was beaten by Harvey Barnes' early finish from 10 yards but recovered to produce his second highest mark of the season with seven crucial saves, most of them coming from clear goal chances for Newcastle on Tuesday. He relied on Pierre Emile Hojbjerg's goal-line clearance from a Malick Thiaw header right after the first goal and later stood tall to deny Anthony Gordon one-on-one from Joe Willock's through ball. In the second half, he made a full-length save from a powerful Joe Willock strike while playing on with heavy bandaging after Dan Burn accidentally stepped on his head. That issue required two stitches but should not make him miss the start against Toulouse on Saturday. Rulli has now made 29 saves in five Champions League games this season, establishing himself as one of the most decisive players in OM.

Impact Medina suffered a setback from his ankle injury during his rehabilitation and will miss an additional month of competition to recover. This is a blow for Marseille because he would hold a meaningful role in the backline if he were available given his characteristics.

Assists in return Balerdi assisted once to go with zero corners and one chance created in Friday's 5-1 victory against Nice.

Impact Balerdi won six aerial duels and timed his defensive interventions well, contributing one tackle three interceptions and five clearances during the derby for his return to the starting XI following his calf injury. He also attacked corners and generated danger late when Nice pushed forward, helping Marseille seal the game with an assist for Mason Greenwood's second goal in the 53rd minute. His positional discipline allowed the full backs to push higher up the pitch and his distribution was brilliant as he reclaimed the precious role he holds under coach Roberto de Zerbi.

Provides assist for opener Pavard assisted once to go with two shots (one on goal) and one chance created in Friday's 5-1 victory against Nice.

Impact Pavard marshalled the defense with authority in a game where Marseille dominated possession and chances. He made four clearances and one interception, avoided any serious error that had drawn critics recently, and showed exceptional motivation as a leader by celebrating every defensive action. Pavard delivered his second assist of the season with a precise header from a corner that set up Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang's goal in the 11th minute.

Bangs powerful goal in victory Weah scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and one chance created in Friday's 5-1 victory over Nice.

Impact Weah scored a powerful goal in the 58th minute after a run down his right flank and a clever pass from Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, effectively killing the hopes of the Aiglons. He repeatedly broke the offside trap and completed four successful dribbles in the first half alone, marking a strong return to the starting XI that will likely secure him an undisputed role for Marseille moving forward. His defensive work rate helped Marseille maintain pressure on Nice's back line, closing out an impactful two-way performance that sparked the rout in the derby.

Scores goal in derby win Paixao scored one goal to go with three shots (two on goal) and one corner in Friday's 5-1 win over Nice.

Impact Paixao sealed the result in the derby with a goal in the 74th minute, finishing Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang's cut-back with precision and timing inside the box. He had already completed three dribbles and produced two progressive carries that stretched Nice's defensive shape before that moment. His movement off the ball opened channels for his teammates, but it was in defense that Paixao was the most surprising on Friday as he set season highs with three interceptions and three clearances, clearly showing that Roberto de Zerbi touch in his game.

NOVEMBER 22, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Three goal contributions Friday Aubameyang scored one goal and assisted twice from two shots and three chances created in Friday's 5-1 victory against Nice.

Impact Aubameyang carved open Nice's defence with his movement and vision, providing two assists during the game for the powerful strike by Timothy Weah in the 58th minute and for the final goal of the match scored by Igor Paixao. The veteran also opened the scoring with a clean volley after Benjamin Pavard headed a corner into his path. Aubameyang completed the most progressive passes in the match and created three chances during the derby. This outing was likely his best since his comeback on the Canebiere.

NOVEMBER 22, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Scores brace in derby Greenwood scored two goals to go with five shots (five on goal), two crosses (one accurate) and three corners in Friday's 5-1 victory over Nice.

Impact Greenwood scored twice, first with a powerful strike in the box that was deflected by Melvin Bard into the net in the 33rd minute and then with an unbelievable strike from the edge of the box that found the bottom left corner in the 53rd minute, taking his tally to 10 in 12 Ligue 1 appearances this season. He was heavily involved throughout, creating two chances and setting a new season high with five shots on target. His movement dragged defenders wide and opened lanes for teammates between the lines. This was a standout performance that underlines his role as Marseille's attacking force and shows he has been on fire this campaign.
