Overview
- Ousmane Dembélé scored twice before halftime and later teed up Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, delivering a standout performance in Le Classique.
- PSG’s other goals came via a Facundo Medina own goal, Kvaratskhelia’s volley and a low finish from Lee Kang-in.
- The five-goal margin was PSG’s biggest ever against Marseille, capping a seventh straight Ligue 1 win to reach 51 points from 21 matches.
- Referee Willy Delajod did not receive a VAR recommendation to review Vitinha’s early studs-up tackle that drew only a yellow card, and later paused play to warn about discriminatory chants.
- De Zerbi benched Gerónimo Rulli for Jeffrey de Lange and afterward accepted responsibility for the display as questions grew over Marseille’s selection and direction.
