Match in Five Sentences: Paris FC edged Marseille 3-2 at the Vélodrome. Lassine Sinayoko struck in the first minute, finishing after Luca Koleosho's pass. Amine Gouiri levelled (8.), then Sinayoko's header from a corner stood after a VAR check (19.). After the restart Gouiri made it 2-2 from close range (53.), yet Les Olympiens had 60.5% possession without finding a winner. A late handball gave Paris FC a penalty and VAR confirmed the spot kick, which Sinayoko converted for his treble (86.), lifting Paris FC from 11th to second while Les Phocéens drop from first to 10th, with Paris FC hosting Lyon next and Les Phocéens visiting Rennes next.
Player of the Match: Sinayoko decided it with a hat-trick, including a late penalty, and put all four of his shots on target to maximise Paris FC's threat.
Stat of the Match: Les Phocéens completed 92.5% of their 644 passes, but that control did not yield points.
Three Things We Learned: VAR confirmed both a first half header and the decisive penalty, showing reviews shaped key moments. Paris FC won 25 tackles at a 68.0% success rate, a platform for absorbing pressure. Sinayoko is third in the Ligue 1 scoring chart on four goals.
