Tooor for Paris Saint-Germain, 0: 1 by Kylian Mbappé

So far, Sead Kolašinac has been incredibly offensive on the home side’s left and keeps popping up in the penalty area. Marseille actually defends in twos at the back.

21:08
As before, every single duel is fought at the limit of what is permitted. You can literally see that there is a lot at stake here, both in terms of sport and prestige.

The next big thing for the hosts! This time Guendouzi crosses to Alexis Sánchez, who puts his chest down for Nuno Tavares. On the left pentagon, however, he doesn’t hit his mark properly and misses the box!

21:02
OM is on the trigger! One ball after the other flies into the Paris penalty area and Paris is just busy defending.

Danilo comes on at Paris Saint-Germain

Presnel Kimpembe is making a substitution at Paris Saint-Germain
15
21:00
PSG must change! Presnel Kimpembe suddenly fell to the ground while sprinting back without opposition and immediately indicated that he couldn’t go on. Even a stretcher is needed. That looks bad.

20:59
Huge chance for OM! Nuno Tavares is sent on the journey and breaks through to the right. The Portuguese approaches Gianluigi Donnarumma from the right but then takes far too long to finish. Nuno Mendes comes in with big strides and tackles Tavares at the very last second.

It goes back and forth at a rapid pace. Both teams are looking for the way forward and play with high intensity.

The hosts also get their first corner kick. Malinovskiy finds Guendouzi at the first post, who takes aim but is blocked just as quickly.

Mbappé then takes out the first corner kick with a first start in the box. Pau López then has to defuse an arc lamp from Fabián Ruiz and there is a corner kick.

The guests seem incredibly focused and make the first good attack. After a one-two with Messi, Mbappé puts it out to the right to Mukiele, whose low cross is blocked at the edge of the penalty area.

It gets straight to the point. The first few minutes are characterized by numerous and tough duels.

The ball rolls! The hosts wear white today, PSG wear dark blue.
20:44
Before kick-off, the home fans swear their team to this classic with a gigantic choreography. The hut is of course packed, guest fans are not allowed.
20:42
Another look at the line-ups: Igor Tudor makes three changes compared to the last game: Guendouzi, Bailly and Malinovskyi start for Mbemba (suspended), Ounahi and Clauss (both bench). PSG coach Christophe Galtier has to do without the injured Neymar and also puts Pembélé on the bench. Marquinhos and Mukiele take over.
20:09
At PSG the worm was in there again in the last few weeks. Weak sporting performances and a lot of theater off the pitch have caused a lot of unrest for the French series champion. Messi’s possible exit in the summer, Neymar’s airs and graces and an ailing coach Christophe Galtier made the headlines. In the Champions League, Paris is on the brink of extinction after losing 1-0 to Bayern in the first leg of the round of 16. They are already out of the cup and now even the championship title they thought was safe seems to be in danger again. Galtier therefore demanded one thing above all from his team before the top game: “We have to play at our highest level and, above all, act decisively in order to survive in Marseille.”
20:00
Since Tudor took over as coach in Marseille last summer, things have gone from bad to worse. OM delights spectators with attacking football worth seeing and have won nine of the last eleven games in the league. Most recently, a 3-2 win at FC Toulouse. Before the summit, Marseille’s coach sees the opponent more under pressure. “The pressure is on them. After all, they have stars like Messi, Neymar, Ramos or Hakimi in their ranks. They simply have to win every game,” said the Croatian, for whom today’s game in the title race is “important but not crucial”. .
19:49
It’s been a long time since the classique of French football between arch-rivals OM and PSG was so eagerly awaited as it is today. The Parisians have lost their supremacy in Ligue 1 and are now just five points ahead of Marseille. In the cup, Igor Tudor’s team recently made a big statement and eliminated the star ensemble from the capital 2-1 in the round of 16. Should OM now succeed in winning two Classiques in one season for the first time since 2011, the championship would also be completely open again.
19:46
Hello and welcome to Ligue 1 on Sunday night! At the end of the 25th matchday at 8:45 p.m. in the Orange Vélodrome in Marseille, there will be a top game between second-placed Olympique and leaders Paris Saint-Germain!
