In the first match of the 22nd round of the French championship, the players of "Nice" and "Marseille", who are in second place in the table, entered the battle. Although the territorial advantage slightly favored the guests, the hosts were able to score first at the beginning of the second half - Romain Genevois sent the ball into the net after a corner kick near the goal. Shortly after, "Marseille's" hopes revived, as Kevin Gomis earned two yellow cards in four minutes. Nevertheless, in the 73rd minute, Niklas Hult scored again after a pass from Alassane Plea. Although this goal was painful, Marcelo Bielsa's players did not give up - just 4 minutes later, the goalkeeper Florian Thauvin, who has been performing well this season, equalized, but unfortunately, the team's efforts were not enough to expand the draw, much to the disappointment of the away fans. After the weekend matches, the Marseille team could drop to third place, and the leader "Lyon" has the opportunity to distance themselves by four points.
