Marseille's wait for first win under Garcia continues

Marseille's wait for their first Ligue 1 win under Rudi Garcia continues after they were beaten 3-1 by Montpellier in Friday's encounter at the Stade de la Mosson.

Garcia led OM to scoreless draws versus Paris Saint-Germain and Bordeaux in his first two league games in charge, but had yet to deliver three points.

An unfortunate own goal from goalkeeper Laurent Pionnier after an attempt from Florian Thauvin saw Marseille get back into it early in the second half, but it would eventually not be enough as Steve Mounie restored Montpellier's two-goal lead in the 57th minute to deliver the win.
