Bad manners, nerves lost and unresolved issues among all the players tangled the final stretch of the match, unleashed after a meeting with hard tackles, verbal accusations and challenges.

In the end, Argentine Leandro Paredes and Lanvin Kurzawa from Paris Saint Germain, and Jordan Amavi and Argentine Dario Benedetto from Marseille were expelled. The VAR then warned of unsportsmanlike behavior from Neymar. The referee reviewed it and the Brazilian also went to the dressing room before the end.

It was the sad outcome of an intense match that was unbalanced in an action that came after half an hour. A foul executed from the three-quarter zone by Dimitri Payet was headed in by Florian Thauvin, who outpaced the defense and scored on the near post against Sergio Rico.

Paris had several chances to equalize, especially thanks to Neymar's talent.

They lost to Lens, recently promoted, last Thursday and now to Marseille, who hadn't won against their rival in Paris in a decade.

Thomas Tuchel's team has accumulated three consecutive defeats. The suffering in the Champions League final against Bayern Munich is added to the two at the beginning of the French competition.

Without Kylian Mbappe, Marquinhos or Mauro Icardi, who are still in quarantine due to testing positive for coronavirus, Tuchel's team relied on the inspiration of Neymar and the drive of Angel Di Maria, who returned after spending fifteen days in isolation due to Covid-19.

In an intense and rough match, the French champion did not hide their helplessness against a well-organized opponent who avoided any setbacks and frustrated their rival until the end, leaving them without any points after two played rounds.
