Mason Greenwood became the first player in Europe’s top five leagues this season to score four goals in one game. Not only did he lead Marseille to the top of Ligue 1, but he also left Manchester United fans filled with regret.
Marseille officially took over first place in Ligue 1 after a dominant 6-2 win against Le Havre, a match highlighted by Mason Greenwood’s dazzling historic "poker." Earlier, PSG was unexpectedly held to a 3-3 draw by Strasbourg at Parc des Princes despite a strong second-half rally thanks to goals from Gonçalo Ramos and Senny Mayulu. This outcome unintentionally created an opening for Marseille, which Roberto De Zerbi’s squad capitalized on completely.
Despite falling behind early when Yassine Kechta put Le Havre ahead midway through the first half, the turning point came immediately after: visiting center-back Gautier Lloris was sent off for a handball inside the penalty area. Greenwood calmly converted the penalty kick, sparking his unbelievable individual performance and triggering a goal deluge for the home side at the Velodrome.
