Guendouzi inspires Marseille's win over Lorient

Marseille supporters paid a series of tributes to controversial former president Bernard Tapie in the first game at the Velodrome since his death.

Jorge Sampaoli's side had lost their past two league games and fell behind early when Armand Lauriente converted from the penalty spot after Stephane Diarra was fouled by Brazilian defender Luan Peres.

Boubacar Kamara's deflected strike from a Guendouzi cutback pulled Marseille level on 27 minutes.

Arsenal loanee Guendouzi headed in a corner from the excellent Dimitri Payet to give the hosts the lead before the hour, with Payet then playing in Arkadiusz Milik to net his first goal since returning from a long-term knee injury.

Marseille sealed the win in stoppage time when Guendouzi's shot was turned in by Lorient defender Houboulang Mendes.
