The French capital has been the site of many exciting matches this season with Marseille and their rivals, Clermont, coming together to showcase their best performances.

In the first match of the weekend, Marseille thrashed Clermont 3-0 at the Stade de France. The visitors were struggling but the French champions proved too strong for the hosts, who could only muster one goal from 12 shots put in by their goalkeeper.

It was a dominating performance for Marseille, who showed no signs of slowing down after the break. Payet scored the opener with a powerful header just before half-time, while Unai Emery's men then added two more goals through both Guémê and Mabouda.

The performance was not without its flaws though. Clermont had some good chances early on but failed to convert them into goals. However, they did manage to create chances themselves, which paid off when they equalized via a penalty kick.

Overall, Marseille were a dominant force in the match and their victory was certainly a credit to the team. They will be looking to build on this performance against Nice tomorrow night.
