The goal came from a header from a deep ball by Reims' defender, who managed to get past the Marseille defense and put the ball in the back of the net. This goal gave Reims a 2-1 lead and secured their victory.
However, it was not all about the goals. Payet scored his second goal of the match in stoppage time. The Frenchman had been waiting patiently in the box for a long time before he finally found the back of the net. His shot went inches past the keeper, sealing a crucial win for Marseille and extending their unbeaten streak to six matches.
