Olympique de Marseille has continued their impressive run under coach Jean-Louis Gasset, securing a 2-0 victory over Nantes at the Stade Vélodrome, propelling them to seventh place. Striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, known for his celebratory somersaults, showcased his prowess by netting both goals, taking his tally to eight since Gasset took charge. In the 17th minute, Aubameyang connected with a cross from Senegalese winger Ismaïla Sarr to open the scoring.
Sarr played a crucial role again in the 79th minute, setting up Aubameyang for his second goal of the evening, ultimately beating goalkeeper Alban Lafont. With 23 goals in total, including 11 in the league, Aubameyang leads Marseille's goal-scoring charts. The team now eagerly anticipates the clash against bitter rivals PSG on March 31, maintaining their stellar form under Gasset's guidance.
