Marseille Rises to Second After 2-1 Win Over Monaco

Mason Greenwood's late penalty in the 89th minute led Marseille to a 2-1 victory over Monaco, propelling them to second place in Ligue 1, tied on points but ahead on goal difference. Monaco had initially taken the lead with Aleksandr Golovin's goal in the 41st minute, but Marseille equalized through Luis Henrique shortly after halftime. The decisive penalty was awarded for a handball by Monaco's Christian Mawissa, which Greenwood converted, marking his ninth league goal of the season. In other Ligue 1 action, Lille drew 2-2 with bottom-placed Montpellier after a late equalizer from Arnaud Nordin, and Alexandre Lacazette scored a hat-trick as Lyon defeated Nice 4-1. Both Marseille and Monaco are seven points behind league leaders Paris Saint-Germain. The match further highlighted Monaco's struggles, who have lost four of their last seven games after an unbeaten start.
