Marseille wins emphatically! Sporting's next opponent in the Champions League defeated Ajax 4-0

Marseille beat Ajax with a 4-0 thrashing this Tuesday, September 30, in a match for the second round of the regular phase of the Champions League. The French emblem is Sporting's opponent in the third round of the competition, which will also have to face Napoli.

The match at Stade Velodrome started with a double goal for the same man. Brazilian Igor Paixão scored his first of the night at six minutes, with a low shot, after being found by Aubameyang. His second was scored at 12, through a powerful shot outside the box (2-0).

Before the break, there was still time for Marseille to make it 3-0. This time it was Mason Greenwood, after being assisted by Aubameyang. The Gabonese's pass left the Brit in front of the goal, leaving the Gaulish team with a comfortable advantage going into the locker rooms (26’).

After making two assists, Aubameyang decided it was his turn to score. After the teams returned from the locker rooms, the captain of the Gabon national team took advantage of a ball theft to close the final score in a 4-0 thrashing, at 52 minutes of the match.

It's worth remembering that Marseille's next commitment in the Champions League will be a clash against Sporting. Roberto de Zerbi's pupils have a meeting with the lions on September 22, at 8pm, at Estádio de Alvalade, for the third round of UEFA's millionaire competition.
