Both Monaco and Marseille, who are vying for Paris Saint-Germain, had opportunities to put pressure on the Ligue 1 leaders on Saturday. Both were unsuccessful. Monaco was disappointed in a goalless draw against Reims, while Lille extended their undefeated streak in all competitions to 16 games by equalizing against Marseille in the 87th minute.
Monaco was only ahead of Marseille on goal differential, and they were still in second place in the rankings. PSG, who play in-form Lyon on Sunday, is four points ahead of the Mediterranean rivals. At Stade Velodrome, Marseille held a commanding lead until Bafodé Diakité tied the score at one. With nine victories and seven draws, Lille's winning streak is the second longest in the team's history. Marseille ended with ten men when Pol Lirola was sent off with a straight red card for a risky tackle on André Gomes during extra time.
