Marseille's return to victory with payet's free-kick in extra time was the highlight of the match on Saturday night. The game started off well for Marseille as they came out strong and controlled the play from start to finish. However, it wasn't until the final minutes of the second half that things got interesting.
It all started when Marseille's midfielder, Nabil Fekir, received a foul in the box and fouled his opponent. The referee immediately sent off the player and gave the ball back to the other team. This led to a corner kick and payet stepped up to take it himself. He curled the ball into the top right corner of the net, giving Marseille the lead and sending the game into extra time.
In extra time, Marseille were given a penalty chance to level the score. It was a tough spot to be in, as Marseille had only one man at the penalty box. But they made the most of their situation by scoring two goals within three minutes. They scored a header and another headed in by substitute Christian Eriksen, who had been substituted earlier in the game.
The goal was enough to seal the win for Marseille and put them back in the mix in the Champions League. It was a fantastic display of teamwork and determination from the entire Marseille squad, and it was clear to see how much they have grown under coach Guus Hiddink.
Overall, it was a thrilling and entertaining game, and it was great to see the players performing at their best. It was also pleasing to see how quickly the teams can adapt to new tactics and formations, especially in a high-pressure situation like this.
