(Ligue 1 2022/2023): Highlights MARSEILLE - ANGERS

Marseille's hope of clinching second place were still alive on Sunday night, as bottom place Angers came to the Orange Velodrome for the matchday's closer. Alexis Sanchez recovered for the hosts after the Chileans' injury against Lens. Dimitri Payet back in the team after scoring a consolation goal last week. Sko meanwhile winless away from home since the turn of the year, yet hoping to claim one last big sculpt before waving goodbye to the top flight. Dimitri Payet hasn't scored in successive matches since August 2021. He thought he'd done it here, but a brilliant reaction save from Paul Pernodoni. Triangle, Payet, Genghis Under and Sanchez led for Saeed Kholodzicak to surely put it away. Bosnians somehow missed the final ball from the Chilean. Igor Chudor has ever agitated on the sidelines. It'd soon be fuming as OM went behind for the third game running. Abdala Sima's fifth league goal. What a finish! Becoming Sko's outright top scorer. Yet the turnaround took just six minutes to take flight. Jonathan Klaus with a terrific delivery from the left. Sanchez hands up early. Onside to poke past Pernodoni. A 14th of the season. Perfectly timed. Expert finishing. Only a victory would likely keep Marseille in the hunt for a top two finish. Monge starting the day with 14 points after 34 match days, equaling the lowest tally at this stage in the league's history. Dimitri Payet would have nine touches in the opposition box, but he made this one count just three minutes into the second half. Scoring in successive matches to hit four for the season. Mostly a sub under Chudor's reign. Still a Marseille hero and providing memories before the end of the campaign. Marseille showing their muscle and then they had a chance for a third. Leonardo Bellardi screaming for a penalty. One that eventually would be delivered. Sima scoring in the first half. His hand conceding a penalty in the second. Sanchez, Payet and Matteo Guendouzi departed. Jordan Veneto took the opportunity from the spot. No novice. The French international's 23rd penalty strike in the top five European leagues. But a first since September 2021 in the Rome derby. Marseille just two points behind Launce in the fight for an automatic Champions League qualification spot.
