Late Gouiri goal gives Marseille win over Ligue 1 struggler Auxerre
MARSEILLE, France (AP) --- Substitute Amine Gouiri scored with 11 minutes
remaining to give Marseille a 1-0 win over Ligue 1 struggler Auxerre on Friday.
The result left Marseille in third place, three points clear of Lyon, which
plays at Le Havre on Sunday. Marseille was seven points behind second-placed
Lens and eight adrift of league leader Paris Saint-Germain.
Although the south coast club has been a constant presence among the clubs
pushing for a European place next season its form has been inconsistent since
the start of the year.
However, Gouiri's return has added goals to the mix.
The Algeria international missed nine games after a shoulder injury in October
but has scored five times since returning to the side in early January.
Here he replaced English defender CJ Egan-Riley after 62 minutes and proved
decisive.
Auxerre remained third to last with just one win in its last 11 games. It was
five points from safety.
