Ligue 1: Saint-Etienne end 41-year wait with away victory against depleted Marseille

Firstpost  

Only around 1,000 spectators were present at the Stade Velodrome due to coronavirus restrictions. Marseille: Saint-Etienne claimed their first win at Marseille since 1979 with a 2-0 Ligue 1 victory on Thursday as Romain Hamouma and Denis Bouanga scored against the depleted hosts. It was a blow for Andre Villas-Boas’ side whose victory against bitter rivals Paris Saint-Germain at the weekend took its toll, as forward Dario Benedetto and left-back Jordan Amavi were suspended after being sent off in a brawl at the end of the bad-tempered match in the capital. The home side’s best chances to score fell 10 minutes into the second half as 19-year-old Nathan Ake hit the crossbar and midfielder Morgan Sanson dribbled his effort past the post less than 60 seconds later. Gabon international left-winger Bouanga doubled his side’s lead to end the 41-year wait by firing past Steve Mandanda with 11 minutes to play.
