00:00Everything ready for the first half of football.
00:10A new season begins here in France, a new era for both Olympique de Marseille and Strasbourg.
00:18Marseille who finished outside the Champions League qualified positions for defence.
00:24Here's Angel Gomez, might just get a chance to get the shot away Angel Gomez.
00:30Strasbourg under early pressure, Mourabet has gone down, the referee has waved play on,
00:38this is Amin Arit with the tricky feet, he's run that behind for a goal kick,
00:43Amin Arit back in Marseille, Carlos after the season away on loan in Turkey,
00:49this was Angel Gomez working his way into shooting position,
00:52and Andrew Omobamidele with the block,
00:58Gomez the England international who has come back to Sam Amo Amio,
01:04English born forward with a teasing ball towards the back post.
01:09and it was very nearly the perfect ball for Sekou Mara inside the penalty box.
01:24Crucial touch by CJ Egan Reilly
01:34and he sends it forward towards Guiri, this might be a chance for Marseille to do some damage on the
01:45counter,
01:45Paisao to Amin Arit, Guiri in the middle, Paisao arriving as well,
01:51Gomez with the shot is just wide, Angel Gomez probably should have done better, missing the target,
02:00second opportunity already for Angel Gomez, this was a good counter attack from the home team,
02:07Marit just holding the ball up, trying to pick out the teammate in the middle,
02:12it fell very kindly for Gomez, credit to him really because he was just trying to send it low into
02:19the...
02:21lovely play with the ball out to the right-hand side for Amo Amio,
02:27running at Emerson, low ball in towards Mara at the near post,
02:33and it's been turned behind for another corner.
02:45Nice control from the Strasbourg winger, that was Sekou Mara holding today's substitutes bench,
02:54and Murabek playing the corner short, gets it back from Nanassi,
02:57teasing delivery and it's met by the head, it was Geladoui the captain,
03:03nodding it wide, the elder brother of the Paris Saint-Germain and France star,
03:07Désiré Doué, Désiré Doué has been linked with a move to PSG,
03:16he was way up,
03:22Paisao coming infield and across from way up, might just fall from Arsée,
03:27player in the middle against Strasbourg, scrambling it clear,
03:31Harriot back to Gomez, early delivery for the right-hand side from Angel Gomez,
03:37that ball is picked up by Jessime Yassine.
03:46Backed into a corner, he's lost it, here's Harriot again,
03:50difficult one for Guiri to bring under control.
03:56Size of club that Marseille are, they should be looking to do very well in that competition,
04:01the draw for the Europa League proper will take place at the end of next week.
04:10Here's Abdelhi, Himand Abdelhi, he's got Paisao to his left,
04:14Paisao the ball into the middle against Strasbourg, struggling to clear their lines of Arsée,
04:19can't force it in.
04:22Another big opportunity, during a friendly in the Netherlands.
04:27Strasbourg coming forward again, a shot from range,
04:31straight into the arms of De Lange.
04:35Diogo Souza with the effort and Diogo Souza with the foul on Paisao.
04:45It's pretty late there, the Portuguese under-21 midfielder.
04:52Just look at the risks that Jürgensen and the Strasbourg defenders are taking,
04:57playing their way out from the back, but on that occasion it was a very successful ploy.
05:01Open up the space up ahead for Souza, could have released the pass, he had options.
05:06Either side of him went for goal himself.
05:09Strasbourg fans making the long trip down from Alsace.
05:20Paisao, it's a great ball, looking for Guiri in the middle,
05:23Hoogsberg nodding it away.
05:29Touchstone by Nanassi.
05:33Egan Reilly will return it to De Lange, summer in this part of France.
05:40Angel Gomez with the delivery, Jürgensen punches it, comes out to Guiri who caught it pretty well, but...
05:48Well wide from the Algerian international, reunited with Bruno Genesio at Marseille.
06:00Jürgensen punching, Guiri is from that last campaign.
06:05Amin Harit, ball out to the far side, Paisao has got the ability to hit it from range,
06:12never really got hold of that one.
06:14He got Paisao straight at Jürgensen.
06:17Paisao has been linked with a possible move to the English Premier League.
06:23Looked like he was going to be heading to that tournament.
06:27Heubiang with the shot, great hit from Pierre-Emil Heubiang.
06:34Always rising, but Marseille trying their luck again,
06:38and Morabette dispossessed by Angel Gomez.
06:45Heubiang slicing it a little bit.
06:49French cup.
06:54Amin Harit, digging out the cross.
06:57Headed away by Weyer.
07:00Harit has given that away, it was behind Weyer.
07:03Jessim Yassin driving it in, De Lange with the save.
07:07He's trying to put a player trying to surprise Marseille's Dutch goalkeeper.
07:14Guiri does well, strong hold-up play.
07:18Angel Gomez just putting his body in the way up against Diogo Souza.
07:23And winning the free kick, clever play that from the England international.
07:31That could have proven costly, Amin Harit losing possession.
07:38Jessim Yassin driving it at goal words.
07:48He's taken over the role of senior recruiter from Mehdi Benatia.
07:57Marseille get their first quarter kick.
07:59Amin Hamideli deflecting it behind.
08:04Amin Hamideli turning back towards his own goal, which was a mistake.
08:10Guiri trying to weave his way into shitty position, comes back to Guiri again.
08:14Shot blocked and it will come through to the grateful Philip Juergensen.
08:23Played in France before, he played for Chelsea.
08:26Away to Paris Saint-Germain in the knockout phases of the Champions League last season.
08:33Doppio wins the header, but comes out to Sam Amin Hamideli.
08:37Used to be on the books at Tottenham and Southampton, drills it in.
08:42Noted down by Souza, gets it again.
08:51Douai.
08:53With the interception, it's fallen to Hoogsberg.
08:57Now Amin Hamideli again.
08:59Infield onto his left foot, lets fly.
09:01And it's way off target.
09:06Well, Strasbourg haven't just had to cope without the injured Panicelli.
09:10They've also seen a number of their top players depart from that competition.
09:17Here's Amin Guiri, laid back the way to Gomez.
09:22That's a good ball from him.
09:24Right to the left-hand side for Paixão, five minutes to go in this first half.
09:28Will we see a goal before the break?
09:30Young players on the bench for Marseille tonight.
09:33Not too much in terms of experienced alternatives available to Bruno Genesio.
09:40Hoogsberg hits it again, and once more it's off target from the Danish international midfielder.
09:49Well, they've tried the luck a few times in this first half, Marseille, but unable to break down the Strasbourg
09:55defense.
09:56Marseille scored 41 goals in 17 home league games last season.
10:02The joint most in the division.
10:05Marseille beat PSG here last season in the league, a rare victory in that fixture in recent times.
10:12Paixão wins the corner, nil-nil between OM and Strasbourg on the opening night of this Ligue 1 season.
10:22Corner plate short.
10:25Gomez, high ball towards the back post, which Jorgensen couldn't properly deal with.
10:30Hoogsberg lays it back, and it's a fine effort, that from Amin Arendt.
10:35And the first serious save of the evening from Filip Jorgensen.
10:39He felt he had to get something on that, but he only succeeded in giving it straight to his fellow
10:44Dane, Hoi-Pierre.
10:46That was a really good stop, flying high to his left.
10:50Touched on by Guiri for Paixão.
10:55Paixão with an interesting ball towards the back post where it was arriving.
11:02Not sighted by Genesis Antwui.
11:11A significant way arriving here, Antwui being sucked in towards Guiri in the middle and a hopeful appeal for a
11:22handball.
11:23But they are tucked right in, here's Emerson.
11:28Coming it to Paixão, the referee played the advantage, Emerson was caught late.
11:33Paixão driving forward, Gomez looking for Guiri in the middle.
11:36It's a dream start to the second half from Marseille.
11:41Less than 60 seconds after kickoff.
11:45And they have the opening goal of this game, of this season.
11:50And it's come from Amin Guiri.
11:53Mason Greenwood has gone, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has gone.
11:57But Guiri is still here, he makes it Marseille 1, Strasbourg 0.
12:12A lot of hope being invested in him this season.
12:15A player who was in scoring form at the World Cup with Algeria.
12:20A player who was given his Ligue 1 bow nearly a decade ago at Lyon by Bruno Genesio.
12:26Now playing under Genesio again here at Marseille.
12:30And with the first-time finish from that fine ball in from Angel Gomez.
12:38After good work down the left from Igor Paixão, who's been Marseille's star player this summer.
12:45Guiri gets the goal, beating Philippe Jorgensen.
12:48And Marseille are in the lead.
12:52Here's Hoiberg.
13:00First 45 minutes, almost done.
13:04And the fourth official is not even going to bring up the board.
13:07No time added on at all.
13:09Referee blows the course here with Strasbourg, Bruno Genesio, and Liam Brasigno back on touchdown.
13:17No changes at the interval from either team.
13:22Remember Marseille without the injured Leonardo Pallerni.
13:25Also missing tonight is Quinton Timber, Dutch international who played at the World Cup.
13:30He is serving a suspension which outside was celebrated down on the bench.
13:37And the fans in the stands here at the Velodrome enjoying that as well.
13:47Let's see how Strasbourg will respond to falling behind.
13:52Amin Guiri getting the goal.
14:01A player who scored 11 times in all competitions last season.
14:06Meanwhile, Samuel Amo Amiao has been given a yellow card.
14:09I think that was for the late challenge on Emerson Palmieri.
14:14The referee allowed the advantage, the players leaving as is always the case in Ligue 1.
14:20Amin Guiri might fancy the shot, Amin Guiri.
14:23Straight at Philip Jorgensen, good effort from Amin Guiri.
14:31His 203rd appearance in the top flight of French football this evening, Amin Guiri.
14:44Hope it hasn't been as prolific as had the first goal of the Ligue 1 season in this
14:49second half. Might we be about to see the first red card?
14:51The referee is miked up, he will explain his decision to the crowd, to everyone that's watching on.
15:09So it's a red card for Samuel Elmourabet for kicking out at Pierre-Emile Huibierre
15:17after the VAR review. I think many of the fans in the stadium will have had difficulty
15:24understanding exactly what happened there.
15:28Elmourabet is the swipe at Huibierre's calf, costing himself and costing his team very dear.
15:36Amin Guiri wins the header, Strasbourg just don't have the same goal threat.
15:40Without Joaquin Panicelli up top, Siku Mara has been penalised here.
15:45And it's a yellow card for Mara.
15:51Scored three goals in the whole of last season on loan at Osser who did very well to stay up.
15:57They actually won away to Bruno Genesio's Lille on the last night of the campaign to secure survival.
16:04Lille, despite that defeat, Lille secured automatic Champions League players will be coming on.
16:10Gio Reyna and Papa Demba Diop for Strasbourg.
16:16Guiri.
16:20Guiri trying to play his way out of trouble.
16:24He's caught Paixão, but he's got his first goal of the season.
16:29Can he make it 2-0?
16:30Guiri, he tucks it away.
16:33Cooley sending Filip Jorgensen to the other side.
16:38It's a second goal for Guiri, a second for Marseille.
16:42They lead Strasbourg by two goals to nil, and they are heading for three points on the opening night of
16:47the campaign.
16:57Guiri, I mean Guiri.
17:05Guiri, I mean Guiri.
17:09Guiri, I mean Guiri.
17:13Well, I mean Guiri
17:16Guiri clearly enjoys playing for Bruno Genesio.
17:18He hadn't scored in pre-season.
17:20But when you look at his pass record under Genesio, 15 goals in the league for Rennes in the 2022
17:29-23 season.
17:33His best return in a Ligue 1 campaign.
17:37Second of them from the penalty spot.
17:40Two big VAR decisions going against Strasbourg.
17:42Down to ten players.
17:44How can they respond?
17:44Can they respond?
17:46And that double substitution that they...
18:08Yellow card for Nijefagert.
18:13And Strasbourg get ready to make two more changes here.
18:18And Strasbourg get ready to make two more changes here.
18:23Cross in by Balde.
18:27Just forward for Douay and Emerson.
18:32Jurena.
18:33Can he relaunch his career in Ligue 1 this season?
18:38Yassine with the effort into the side netting.
18:53It's a straight swap in central defence as we see.
18:57Nigo Paisal, the drop of the shoulder to get away from Douay.
19:02Picked up by Maddy.
19:04Here's the captain way up.
19:07Abdallah hits it, it's 3-0.
19:10And Kylian Abdallah joins in the fun.
19:15He gets his name on the score sheet.
19:18And puts the seal on a fine victory to kick off the campaign for Marseille.
19:33Well, not too many young players have come through here at Marseille in recent times and
19:41been successful.
19:42Kylian Abdallah is hoping to do just that.
19:45He's only 20.
19:46The young winger, the ball falling to him inside the penalty box.
19:50He's looked lively since coming on.
19:53One touch to control it, another to get the ball out from his body.
19:57And a third to lash the shot on his left foot beyond the reach of Filip Juergensen.
20:02And Kylian Abdallah gets the goal, his first Paisal.
20:14Emerson's delivery headed away by Hoogsberg.
20:18Strong defending from Aguert up against Ortega.
20:24To remember.
20:26There he is on the ball again.
20:29He's away from his defender with ease.
20:32And it comes out to Hoogsberg.
20:33It's a great strike for Hoogsberg.
20:36Juergensen maybe should have done better.
20:39But Hoogsberg gets his goal and it's 4-0.
20:44Filip Juergensen thinks that that goal should be disallowed.
20:48And the Strasbourg goalkeeper is protesting to the referee.
20:51He's got a yellow card as a result of it.
20:53As the celebrations go on down in the corner.
20:57Hoogsberg, who might have been on his way out of the club in the last couple of weeks,
21:01turning down a transfer.
21:03Staying put for the moment.
21:04He likes it here.
21:05He likes it in France.
21:10And he might be feeling convinced after tonight to stay on beyond the transfer window closing.
21:19Hoogsberg shot.
21:19Paisao was maybe blocking the goalkeeper's view.
21:23This will be checked to make sure he wasn't in an offside position.
21:25It was a good strike from Hoogsberg, but Juergensen had to do better.
21:31Amtala involved again.
21:33And another late goal.
21:36Marseille 4, Strasbourg 0.
21:38And it's a big win to start the season for Olympique de Marseille.
21:43They've beaten Strasbourg by four goals to nil.
21:46Victory and a handsome victory for Bruno Genesio in his first competitive game at the helm of
21:53Olympique to Marseille after...
