After seeing the match delayed, the Marseille fans did not have to wait long to be sent into delirium as Aguerd nodded them in front in the fourth minute."
"There was an element of fortune about Aguerd's opener as Mason Greenwood's cross took a heavy deflection and looped into the air for Moroccan to head in from close range. Geronimo Rulli made smart saves to deny Vitinha and Fabian Ruiz as PSG looked to respond, but the visitors were left breathing a sigh of relief when Gouiri cut in front the left and took aim from the edge of the area, only to see his effort cannon off the woodwork."

The 1-0 result left PSG level on 12 points while Marseille sit sixth, three points behind the leaders.
