Olympique Marseille vs Atlético de Madrid

Atl. Madrid came from behind to beat Marseille 2-1 at the Orange Vélodrome in their final pre-season tune-up, overturning an early home lead with two well-worked second-half... actually first-half goals either side of the break to leave Marseille frustrated on their own turf. Igor Paixão put the hosts ahead in the 22nd minute, but Atl. Madrid hit back before halftime through Rodrigo Mendoza, who converted a chance teed up by Ademola Lookman in the 39th minute. The game stayed level at the break before Carlos Martín netted the winner in the 78th minute, finishing off a low ball from Arnau Ortiz. It was a feisty affair with plenty of cautions handed out, including to Paixão, Leonardo Balerdi, Geoffrey Kondogbia, Giuliano Simeone and Robin Le Normand, though the match passed without red cards or penalties. For Marseille, it's a reminder there's still work to do defensively before the season kicks off, even if friendly results rarely carry lasting weight. Atl. Madrid, meanwhile, wrap up their preseason schedule with a confidence-boosting comeback win, showing depth in attack with goals from two different substitute-linked combinations as they head into the new campaign.
