In the first game of the season, Marseille had to come from behind to defeat Reims in front of a packed stadium at the Stade de France. The result was a 2-1 win for the French champions, but it was a crucial moment for the team that saw its comeback efforts pay off.
The game started with a flurry of goals as both teams scored early on. However, it was only when Mikel Arteta made a powerful header into the goal that the home side took control. The referee then awarded a penalty kick to Reims, which was taken by Yann M'Vila.
Despite this, M'Vila did not miss his opportunity and calmly converted the penalty kick to give Marseille a 1-0 lead. This was a significant step forward for the team, and they were determined to continue their comeback efforts.
But things didn't just end there. In stoppage time, M'Vila's free-kick hit the post and bounced back into the goal, giving Marseille a 2-1 lead. The crowd erupted in celebration, and the fans couldn't believe what they were seeing. It was a historic moment for the team, and one that will be remembered for years to come.
This victory was a testament to the resilience and determination of the players. Despite the odds against them, Marseille fought back hard and managed to score two important goals in stoppage time to secure a vital three points. And it was a reminder that even when things seem bleak, there is always hope and determination to overcome any challenge.
Overall, the comeback effort from Marseille was a remarkable achievement, and it is clear that the team has the potential to become one of the top clubs in Europe. With another big game coming up against Bordeaux next week, the team can look forward to another exciting season ahead.
