Paris punishes OM, Monaco player ratings from Monaco v Marseille | OneFootball

Paris Brunner delivered a brace, his first Ligue 1 goals, in his ninth top-flight appearance against OM, a towering header and a dazzling finish.

Hradecky was untroubled before the break, then saved smartly from Abdallah early in the second half on 47 minutes. Weah hit his own post, yet the goalkeeper’s evening was largely calm despite occasional loose kicking. According to Nice-Matin, Brunner has been Monaco’s X-factor at the start of this season.

Sané’s recovery challenge on Harit at 45+1 minutes was borderline but it was his only scare. Vanderson’s duelling remains short of his best, losing out to Emerson for OM’s first big chance at 47 minutes, though his positional play yielded key blocks from Gouiri on 80 minutes and Moumbagna on 90+2. Dier dominated aerially and his precise pass from deep sent Brunner away for 2-0.

Nazinho suffocated Harit and increasingly drove forward, dovetailing well with Idumbo. In midfield, Camara covered the pitch, disrupted OM by reading play and surged past markers, though he should avoid pushing Höjbjerg in a flashpoint. If he does move to England, AS Monaco would lose a great deal.

Zakaria was tidier than showy, compensating for Camara’s forays but caught Abdelli with two rash tackles and collected his first booking of the season. Coulibaly kept the right flank secure but must run in behind more, replaced by SOUBEIR on 81 minutes. Golovin drifted between Abdelli and Höjbjerg and exploited the space for the opener, then made way for ABLINE on 81 minutes. Idumbo drove at Weah, shot on 8, 27 and 73 minutes, and tracked back on Gomes on 32, before DETOURBET replaced him on 85 minutes. Brunner outjumped Egan-Riley for the first, then sat Kondogbia down and deceived Egan-Riley for his second, later replaced by BIERETH on 81 minutes to an ovation.
