Marseille fell behind midway through the first half against Strasbourg as Emanuel Emegha opened the scoring. There were 68 minutes on the clock by the time that Greenwood confidently strode up to the spot and fired the ball low into the bottom corner.

Chelsea loanee Andrey Santos conceded the penalty that allowed Greenwood to restore parity, with the Brazilian midfielder enduring mixed fortunes on the night. It was his perfectly-weighted pass that allowed Emegha to break the deadlock, but a clumsy challenge in the second-half undid much of that good work.
