Marseille have secured their place in the Champions League after defeating Nice at Stade Vélodrome on Sunday evening.

The victory was a testament to the hard work and determination of the Marseille players, who have been battling against relegation all season.

Marseille's victory over Nice was also a significant boost for the team's chances of qualifying for next season's Champions League.

With only two games remaining in the league, Marseille now sit just one point behind Lille and four points clear of relegation zone.

The win also means that Marseille will be playing in Europe for the first time since 2015-16.

Despite the victory, Marseille coach Lucien Favre admitted that there is still much work to do if they want to secure their place in Europe next season.

"We have a long way to go," Favre said. "We have to keep working hard and we have to continue to improve."

Despite the pressure of the match, Marseille showed their class by dominating the game from start to finish.

The French champions dominated possession and created numerous opportunities, but it was Nice who ultimately found themselves on the receiving end of a devastating strike from Anthony Martial.

Martial's goal proved to be the difference between the two teams as Marseille claimed all three points and closed in on Champions League qualification.

The win also marked a return to form for the Marseille squad, who had struggled in recent weeks.

The victory will provide a much-needed boost for the team ahead of the final few matches of the season.

As the final whistle blew, Marseille fans erupted in celebration, knowing that they were just one step away from securing their place in Europe once again.
