00:00for the first time since he did it in august-september 2021
00:03when he did it with four games
00:0531 assists in Ligue 1, he holds the record for the defender win back since
00:18down on France's south coast, Olampique de Marseille against OGC Nice today
00:22Roberto Deserbis Marseille aiming to continue their unbeaten start to the campaign
00:28and a win would take them provisionally to the top of the table
00:32at least until their great rivals Paris Saint-Germain play later
00:36Nice meanwhile have the possibility to go level on points
00:40with Marseille with a victory here today
00:43that would silence a fast crowd inside this great stadium
00:47on the day in which the home club are marking
00:49the new signing looking to release Luis Enrique, the Brazilian
01:00an early chance for David again from Marcin Buko, it's a good ball through from Mopé
01:06Luis Enrique who's perhaps been talked about rather less than Mason Greenwood and other members of the
01:17Marseille attack at the start of this season but his revival has been pretty remarkable too
01:25as we swim the free kick challenge on Mamed Ali Chou
01:37you see the chance again Hojbjerg recovering the ball
01:40Mopé playing the pass through, two players who have come to the velodrome
01:45Ivorian international, Bogo looking to slip it through from Guesson
01:50hits the shot on the turn blocked by the defender
01:56Marseille struggling to clear their lines here eventually the flag comes up
02:04his shot was blocked by Lilian Brassier
02:08eventually that's why the offside flag was raised
02:11it was Jeremy Bogo who was ahead of the last defender
02:14having had possession of the ball initially, it's the shot by Guesson
02:21touched on by Greenwood, picked up by Danji Ferniz
02:26challenged by Danji on Amine Ariete is penalized, it was hand into the mouth of the Marseille
02:33player, it's a yellow card for the veteran Nice captain, it's the case of putting his hand out
02:39well that's why the card has been produced
02:45catching Ariete in the field, goal by Abdelmounen
02:58high boots, which caught the Nice player, the referee looking to play the advantage
03:02and he will bring it back with a free kick
03:04that was the reason that the free kick was given and a painful one for Mamadou Dichot
03:19stop Amine Mourinho connecting with that pass, pressing
03:26causing problems though for Nice, chance for the shot at goal
03:35the top of the shoulder and the shot at goal from Greenwood is over the top of the crossbar
03:44and there's opening weeks in French football, bounced on that loose ball, tried to curl one
03:52too high
03:53so
04:01involved in their latest fixtures in the South American World Cup qualifying campaign, albeit he
04:06wasn't on the field in either game, now the offside flag is up here, the move is going to
04:10be allowed to continue, Mbappe lashes it into the net but the offside flag came up very early
04:17our team just to make sure that he was indeed offside, you can see it there when that ball's
04:21nodded down, Mbappe is clearly ahead of the last defender, he still took it very well which
04:30proves that he still knows the way to goal despite not
04:36fetch the ball down the flank for Mamadou Dichot to take on Mourinho, checks his run and holds up
04:43the cross to the back post for Barre who smashes the shot off the post that would have been a
04:48sensational goal, closest that Nice have come to scoring so far
05:06and deserve be aware of this is Luis Enrique a bit too far out for the
05:12attempted goal, has the ball again
05:17Bulka didn't move, Martin Bulka stayed rooted to his line
05:22and Neil Mbappe has taken full advantage to put Marseille in front
05:29the breakthrough goal comes late in the first half
05:35well Nice will be really disappointed with the way they conceded this
05:39Luis Enrique's cross, too good a flexion and Dendayishimie was the defender who
05:47probably should have done better up against Mbappe there, Mbappe
05:50sending the header from close range past Bulka, he has scored a goal on his debut for Marseille
05:55at the velodrome and he's done it against his old club the club but with whom he made his
06:00professional debut as a 16 year old, Neil Mbappe scores and Marseille lead Nice 1-0
06:09in the mediterranean derby
06:14not that Roberto Deserbe is ready to blow for halftime and so far so good for Marseille
06:22who after two wins and a draw in their first three games this season leaked here in the
06:26mediterranean derby against Nice today, there's the scorer and playing his first game since being
06:33lent to Marseille two weeks ago it is Neil Mbappe who has the home side up
06:391-0 after 45 minutes, we're going to take a short break and come back with the highlights
06:46at the end of the season as he's bouncing around hopefully he can find a home here
07:04home team coming forward once again Murillo out to the right hand side
07:08to Greenwood who's scored in every game so far since arriving in Ligue 1
07:20Koga's strike over the wall not held by Rulli
07:24well our squads Jeremy Boga the Ivorian international another one
07:33it's his free kick which was not held by Rulli and then Rosario's follow-up
07:37nearly squirmed under what did squirm under Rulli's body but the goalkeeper got enough of it
07:44Klos was in the latest France squad
07:50Luis Enrique coming inside and he's the one to it hits it oh it's a stunning goal
07:59absolutely sensational
08:06Marseille double their lead thanks to one of the goals of the season so far
08:10starts his Marseille career he returned during last season from a loan spelt back in his homeland
08:16and now he's a regular in Roberto Deserbi's team and that goal
08:23curled high into the net beyond the reach of Bulka after the layoff from Amin Harit
08:30it's his third already this season he scored twice at Brest on the opening weekend he's
08:36on the mark again here today
08:42Ben Lamio the referee is coming across here to show a card I think to Fonk is the Nice coach
08:55fringe player for such a long time now anything but
08:59driven in by Bulga and blocked by Rulli
09:10still time for Nice to come back into this game
09:14defeat will leave them with four points from Fonk who keeps on performing at his current high level
09:20maybe that he comes into consideration for his country
09:25the card is shown to Derek Cornelius beating United States 2-1 and then drawing
09:33nil-nil with Mexico and emerging as the leading force
09:45by the referee again producing a card for a Marseille players
09:54it's just a little bit late into the challenge on Bugana
10:04Harit driving towards the penalty box Harit's shot well he played it himself
10:24ball in towards the near post is collected eventually by Rulli
10:37Amdi is now occupying that position has left wing back Melvin Barr has dropped back into the
10:44back three following the withdrawal of Danchi from European competition
10:54now on his way to becoming a fan's favorite here now this is a problem for Marseille because
11:02Derek Cornelius who has already been booked has been shown the red card
11:12close close towards the back post it might be turned in it should have been turned in
11:19Manees should have had a goal back now field of Tom Luché coming on
11:32Ali Abdi thought he was fouled I think because he went for that ball
11:36under pressure from Mason Greenwood and clearly something he said
11:41was what led to the
11:42supporters group celebrating birthdays Marseille marking 125 years but Nice looking to get one back
11:52and Geronimo Rulli low down to deny Ivan Gesell the striker who spent much of his youth here in Marseille
12:05Marseille
12:09Magurian international denied by Marseille's the win at the velodrome
12:18draw against Rance in the first home match of the season
12:27it's going to be a card
12:29one
12:41a serious knee injury in pre-season in training it's a big setback
12:46Jonathan Rowe looked to go around Bullcutt
12:49he's put that wide
12:52Greenhill for the player who
12:54is making a step up from the English championship to Ligue 1 here in France
13:01these two teams will be facing PSG in October that will be the ultimate test of their credentials
13:06Marseille looking in very good shape though and despite the red card for Derek Cornelius which
13:14this might well be a therapy but a rivalry it is not Marseille again beats Nice
13:232-0 on the day they leave the table for the moment PSG play later today that is it for
13:31Marseille at home thank you for joining us here on Being Sports stay tuned for more
