Marseille wasted no time asserting control, with Amine Gouiri opening the scoring in just the second minute to set the tone for a one-sided contest. Rennes struggled to cope with Marseille\u2019s intensity, and the hosts doubled their advantage shortly after halftime when Greenwood found the net in the 46th minute.<\/p>\n
The English forward continued his sensational run of form this season, showcasing composure and clinical finishing inside the box. Greenwood\u2019s strike not only gave Marseille a comfortable cushion but also underlined his growing influence in key matches. His performance drew praise from fans and pundits alike, as he combined intelligent movement with sharp attacking instincts throughout the game.<\/p>\n
Greenwood\u2019s goal against Rennes took his season tally to an impressive 22 goals and seven assists in 31 matches across all competitions, a remarkable return that highlights his consistency and resurgence in French football. His contributions have been vital in keeping Marseille competitive domestically, where they currently sit third in Ligue 1.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
