In a thrilling match that saw Marseille triumph over Rennes in the latest round of Ligue 1 football, it was the home side who emerged victorious thanks to two goals from Dimitri Payet.
The match, which took place at Stade Vélodrome on Sunday evening, was a closely contested affair that saw both teams put in strong performances. However, it was Marseille who ultimately came out on top thanks to their attacking prowess.
Payet, who has been in excellent form this season, was the standout player for Marseille in the match. He scored two crucial goals, helping his team secure all three points and keep their title hopes alive.
The first goal came in the 27th minute when Payet found himself unmarked in the penalty area and slotted the ball into the back of the net. The second goal arrived just four minutes later as Payet played a one-two with his teammate and finished off the move with a cool finish.
Despite the impressive display by Payet, it was not enough to prevent Marseille from conceding a late equalizer. However, the fact that they were able to hold on and take all three points is a testament to their determination and skill on the pitch.
Overall, it was another impressive performance from Payet and Marseille as they continue to be one of the most dominant sides in Ligue 1. They will now look to build on this win and continue their quest for a domestic double this season.
