Dijon 1 - 2 Marseille: Late Bafetimbi Gomis effort sees Marseille edge past Dijon
Posted Sunday, December 11, 2016 by PA
Bafetimbi Gomis scored a late winner as Marseille edged Dijon 2-1 in their Ligue 1 encounter at the Stade Gaston Gerard on Saturday.
Rudi Garcia's OM, who moved into the top half of the standings with an impressive 3-0 home win over Nancy last weekend, went ahead in the sixth minute courtesy of Maxime Lopez's first goal for the club.
Florian Thauvin surged forward and played a neat ball through to the 19-year-old, who got to it before the advancing Baptiste Reynet and slotted home.
Mehdi Abeid looked to have secured a point for Dijon 12 minutes from time when he sent a free-kick through the fog and past Marseille goalkeeper Yohann Pele.
But Gomis had the final word after 87 minutes, tucking home substitute Bouna Sarr's cross from close range to settle the game - which had been scheduled for Friday night but was postponed due to dense fog - in the visitors' favour.
