PARIS (Reuters) – Marseille beat Marseille 2-1 in a grueling 35-minute match with fireworks on the 22nd round of the French league.
The referee suspended the match in the 57th minute after throwing firecrackers near Kevin Strutmann and Jordan Amavi of Marseille, and the referee. He then decided to send the teams into the locker room until the security of the stadium was ensured.
In the third minute of overtime, Nicolas Bibi scored for the first half penalty and in the fourth minute of overtime for the second half (90 + 4). While Italian striker Mario Balotelli scored in his first match with his new team two days after leaving Nice with a header (90 + 5).
Marseille hopes that Super Mario will regain his form of scorer, which allowed him to score 42 goals in his first two years with the former Nice. Balotelli has not played since December 4 and Angie has been alone since January.
Marseille played with 10 men after a red card against Florian Tufin in the 67th minute.
Marseille lost to Rami and his captain Dimitri Bayet, Lucas Ocampus and Morgan Sanson were suspended and the Japanese Hiroki Saki, who joined his country at the 2019 Asian Cup in the United Arab Emirates, lost.
