El-Melali on micro de DAZN
Difficult match this evening for the Angevins in Marseille who, after the home defeat against Reims, hope to show something else.
The two teams observe each other in the first minutes.
Marseille confiscates the ball and gradually approaches the Angevin area. Masson Greenwood forces Fofana to relax with OM’s first shot on target. 10′
Angers plays against and quickly projects forward. After a tackle, Raolisoa’s foot comes off Ulisses Garcia, the referee shows the yellow card then goes to review the images by the VAR and finally brings out the red. Angers plays at 10.
Then it was Maupay’s turn to take a red card after receiving a first yellow card for an imaginary foul on Fofana then a 2nd yellow for a high foot on Jean-Eudes Aholou. 30′
Things are starting to rumble at the velodrome, because the Marseillais are playing ball, but are unable to break through the Angevin barrier. OM gives the impression of playing a friendly match without any stakes.
The referee whistles for half-time to the whistles of impatient Marseille supporters. OM have 69% possession, but cannot seem dangerous. Angers two shots on target like OM.
The match resumes.
Winning coaching for De Zerbi who brought in Rowe in place of Carboni. Rowe in the area with his back to goal turns around and scores with a right shot. 1-0 51’
Angers equalize with a masterful free kick from El Melali. His shot goes above the wall and deceives Rulli on the left side. 1-1 54’
The match is more lively in the second half.
On a magnificent movement Murillo inherits a cross from Ulisses Garcia on the left and places a header and scores. The goal was canceled because the referee judged that the ball had touched Murillo’s hand when scoring.
On excellent control from Rowe, the latter unleashes a shot which forces Fofana to divert for a corner. 76′
Angers shows a lot of solidarity.
