Mason Greenwood scored four goals as Marseille thrashed 10-man Le Havre 6-2, securing their eighth consecutive home win in Ligue 1 and propelling them to the top of the table.

The French side dominated the opening stages, with Greenwood and Benjamin Pavard combining effectively to set the tone for a high-scoring encounter.

Le Havre's visitors' strategy was to launch hopeful long balls upfield, but they had to stay alert as Mason Greenwood's mistake created a scoring opportunity for Fode Doucoure.

The hosts dominated possession and created scoring chances for nearly 15 minutes, but their frustration grew after Le Havre's unexpected breakthrough. Yassine Kechta's impressive solo effort and curling shot caught them off guard, giving Le Havre the lead.

On the half hour, OM were handed a lifeline as pressure from Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang tempted Gautier Lloris into handling the ball right on the edge of the box.

An initial yellow card was upgraded to a red after a VAR intervention, and the subsequent penalty kick was dispatched with ease by Greenwood to bring Marseille level.

With the numerical advantage, Marseille dominated possession, maintaining intense pressure on Le Havre's defense. Despite their efforts, they struggled to break down the visitors' resolute backline until the substitutions brought renewed energy.

The tactical substitutions paid off for Marseille when Robinio Vaz, shortly after coming on, contributed to a swift move that ended with Mason Greenwood scoring his second goal, deflecting the ball past the Le Havre goalkeeper to give the hosts a 2-1 lead.

Greenwood's Clinical Finishing

Le Havre's defense was reeling, and Mason Greenwood took advantage with clinical finishes. He scored his hat-trick goal with ease, brushing off a defender, and then added his fourth goal with a precise right-footed shot with 15 minutes remaining.

Marseille's Convincing Win

Vaz sealed the win with a tap-in, but Le Havre earned some late respect with Doucoure's stunning volley from outside the box in stoppage time. However, Marseille immediately countered, and Amir Murillo headed in the sixth goal, cementing their 6-2 victory.

Le Havre's Struggles Continue

The loss ended Le Havre's three-match draw streak and left them winless in their last four league games, with only one win in their opening eight matches (D3, L4).
