Olympique de Marseille saw their already slim title hopes evaporate completely after a humiliating 1-3 defeat to Stade de Reims in Ligue 1's 27th round. With PSG now sitting a massive 22 points clear at the top after their victory over Saint-Étienne, the championship race is mathematically over with seven matches remaining.

Roberto De Zerbi's side now faces a serious fight to maintain their second position, with AS Monaco and OGC Nice closing in rapidly. Marseille's recent poor form - this marks their third defeat in five matches - has opened the door for their pursuers in what's becoming an intense battle for Champions League qualification.
