AS MONACO - OLYMPIQUE DE MARSEILLE (2-0) / Week 2 - Ligue 1 McDonald's 26/27Monaco secured their first victory of the Ligue 1 season with a convincing 2-0 win over Marseille at the Stade Louis II, ending OM's remarkable 18-match unbeaten run across all competitions. The hosts took the lead early through Paris Brunner, who finished superbly from Alexander Golovin's cross from the right flank. Marseille struggled to find their rhythm and were frustrated by Monaco's disciplined defence. In the second half, Brunner struck again, scoring his second goal of the match after a precise pass from Eric Dier, giving Monaco a comfortable two-goal cushion. Marseille's frustration boiled over with bookings for Denis Zakaria, Lamine Camara, Flavio Nazinho and Lukas Hradecky. The statistics show Monaco had 15 shots with 6 on target and 46% possession, while Marseille registered 12 attempts with only 3 on target despite having 54% possession. This was the first time in 18 matches that Marseille had failed to score. Paris Brunner was named man of the match with his two clinical finishes. With three points, Monaco climbed to 7th place, while Marseille dropped to 8th with the same points tally. Can Adi Hütter's men build on this impressive display against Nice next week?
