This triumph allows Marseille to surpass Paris Saint-Germain and rise to the top of Ligue 1.\n\nGreenwood, who joined Marseille in the summer of 2024, was unstoppable, guiding the team to their fifth consecutive victory. After eight matchdays, Marseille is one point above PSG, who drew at home against Strasbourg on Friday.\n\nMarseille has demonstrated a great goal-scoring ability, with 21 goals in eight matches, and a solid defense under the direction of coach Roberto De Zerbi.\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n\n<p>&#8220;It was a perfect night,&#8221; stated Marseille captain Leonardo Balerdi.<\/p>\n\n<cite>Leonardo Balerdi<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\nFollowing the expulsion of Gautier Lloris, defender for Le Havre, Greenwood converted the penalty that equalized the score, after Yassine Kechta put the visiting team ahead. Greenwood continued his performance with three more goals in the second half.\n\nGreenwood finished last season as top scorer, tied with Ousmane Demb\u00e9l\u00e9 with 21 goals, although Demb\u00e9l\u00e9 took the trophy for having scored fewer penalties.\n\nGreenwood became the first Marseille player to score four goals in a Ligue 1 match since Jean-Pierre Papin in 1991.\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/a.espncdn.com\/combiner\/i?img=%2Fphoto%2F2025%2F1018%2Fr1562183_1296x729_16%2D9.jpg\" alt=\"Mason Greenwood celebra un gol para el Marsella\" title=\"\"><\/figure>\n\n\nRobinio Vaz and Amir Murillo also contributed goals for Marseille. For Le Havre, Aboulaye Tour\u00e9 scored a great goal with a volley from outside the area.\n\nIn other results of the day, Lyon, who aspired to surpass PSG, fell 3-2 to Nice, despite dominating much of the match. Nice broke a streak of five games without winning and rose to eighth position, four points behind Lyon.\n\nFolarin Balogun, American striker, scored his second goal of the season for Monaco, who drew 1-1 against Angers.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mason Greenwood shines with four goals in Marseille&#8217;s victory Forward Mason Greenwood, in a stellar performance, scored four goals, his personal best, leading Marseille to a resounding 6-2 victory over Le Havre, who played with one man less.
