Marseille return to form with Montpellier thrashing

A fast start to the season had raised hopes of Marseille challenging for a first title since 2010 under Roberto De Zerbi before they dropped off with a defeat by Strasbourg and a draw with Angers.
But OM were at their best at bottom club Montpellier, cutting the gap to PSG and Monaco who are separated by goal difference at the top of the table. The visitors got off to a flying start, as Elye Wahi nodded home Jonathan Rowe's header across goal in the first minute.
Amine Harit added a second in the 36th minute, before Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg effectively wrapped up the points before half-time. Mason Greenwood collected Wahi's through ball and drove forward before picking out the bottom corner to score his first goal since August.
Luis Henrique completed the scoring with 17 minutes left after Montpellier youngster Stefan Dzodic had been sent off.
Earlier Sunday, Lyon notched a third straight win with a 4-0 thrashing of Le Havre. Reims missed a chance to climb into the top four as they lost 2-1 at Auxerre.
