Barely five minutes had passed when Marseille won a corner kick. The delivery was precise into the six-yard box, where the Moroccan defender rose highest and powered home a lethal header. The ball was driven low and tucked inside the left post, leaving the PSG goalkeeper with no chance.

What Did This Goal Mean for the Match?

Aguerd’s early strike sent the Vélodrome into raptures and completely shifted the script of the match. PSG, forced to react from the outset, suddenly found themselves up against a highly motivated Marseille side determined to capitalize on their fans’ energy and the scoreboard advantage.
