The guests opened the scoring in the 14th minute. Ihor Paishao launched a lightning attack, breaking through from outside the penalty area with a low ball from under the defender – the ball flew right into the corner, leaving the goalkeeper without a chance.
However, at the end of the first half, Marseille remained in ten. Emerson received a second warning for simulation and was sent off, making life difficult for his team.
In the second half, the hosts gradually pressed the opponent. In the 69th minute, Zheni Katamu equalized the score after a pass from Pedro Gonçalves – after a long VAR check, the goal was counted, but it was not found to be offside. And in the 86th minute, Alisson Santos, who came on as a substitute, closed the feed of Fotis Ioannidis and brought Sporting the victory.
