Struggling against goal, vaguely boring, Sampaoli's OM weren't so crazy in recent weeks.

The space of an evening, it became again, completely.

And as it was also the evening of the return of the public after more than a month of reduced gauges, the noise made by the Vélodrome when OM came back to 2-2 after 20 stunning minutes will remain memorable.

The stadium exploded again when Milik scored the 4-2 goal (78th), his third of the evening, or when Under added an extra touch of class with an incredible recovery from the left in the top corner to increase the score (5 -2, 85th).

But before these roars, the stadium whistled, a lot.

Because OM came completely wrong in this match which was to be that of redemption after Tuesday's failure in Lyon (2-1).

From the 8th minute, after a bad recovery from Saliba, Gerson, in his area, took a long time to choose what to do with the ball.

Fulgini decided for him, took the ball from him, and scored (1-0).

Three minutes later, after a slalom from Boufal relayed by Fulgini, Bentaleb's shot was deflected by Kamara and Angers led 2-0.

But there was an air of August on Friday at the Vélodrome, when OM defended badly and attacked like crazy, and Marseille turned everything upside down.

In the 18th minute, Milik overflowed perfectly concluded an action where Guendouzi had also done everything perfectly, recovery, sharp run and deep pass (2-1).

And just three minutes later, Gerson put the two teams level, and erased his initial error, with a big shot from outside the box into the side netting (2-2, 21st).

Gorgeous Under

The rest remained very lively, with Boufal's dribbling on the Angers side as a constant danger and, on the Marseille side, the weight of a resolutely offensive system this time.

Because the thought of Sampaoli is sometimes difficult to follow.

After having long favored an organization without a center forward, he had lined up two on Friday, with Milik and Bakambu in a kind of 4-4-2 diamond.

He had also revived Balerdi and established Gerson, back from selection and Kolasinac, winter recruit.

In the second half, all these changes did not initially prevent a return to a more traditional scenario: OM had possession of the ball and dominated, without excessively threatening Angers, who for his part no longer left only on a few cons.

But the superior individual quality of OM ended up paying off, after a first big chance badly negotiated by Bakambu.

The third goal, signed Milik (70th), thus came after a superb opening from Under, author of a perfect entry into play, and a decisive pass from Gerson, also very good after his initial error.

And what about Under's decisive pass for Milik on the 4-2 action?

Bright, she recalled that OM had talent, a lot, including one evening when Payet was not decisive.

While Marseille had not won since the end of November at the Vélodrome and had not scored more than two goals against an elite team since mid-October (4-1 against Lorient), this resounding success gives momentum to the team of Jorge Sampaoli, second while waiting for the matches of the weekend.

She needs it because her schedule is extremely dense until the end of the month.
