Marseille have secured their place in the UEFA Champions League with a 1-0 victory over Nice on Saturday evening.
The win means that Marseille will be playing in Europe's premier club competition for the first time since 2008, and it is a significant achievement for the French side.
Nice were unable to find the back of the net against Marseille, despite having several chances to score. The only goal of the match came in the 45th minute when Yussuf Poulsen headed home from a corner.
Despite not winning the game outright, Marseille have secured their place in the group stage of the Champions League, while Nice will have to settle for a spot in the Europa League.
It was a tough night for Nice, who had been looking to make up some ground in the league table after a poor start to the season. However, they were unable to break down the Marseille defence, which kept them at bay throughout the match.
The result has been a huge boost for Marseille, who are now just two points behind Ligue 1 leaders Paris Saint-Germain. They will need to continue performing well if they want to maintain their position in the top flight and secure a place in next season's Champions League.
Overall, this was a key victory for Marseille and one that sets them up well for the upcoming season. It shows that they are capable of competing at the highest level and that they have what it takes to challenge for the title.
