Tochukwu Nnadi
Assists winner after costly foul
Nnadi assisted once to go with one shot (zero on goal) and one chance created in Sunday's 5-2 win over Angers. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 74th minute.
Analysis: Nnadi supplied one assist and created one chance while recording one off-target shot across 89 minutes in Sunday's 5-2 victory at Angers. He conceded the penalty that allowed Amine El Ouazzani to reduce the deficit to 3-2 in the 75th minute but made amends by setting up Amine Harit's goal eight minutes later before initiating the move leading to Igor Paixao's late strike. Nnadi was also booked following his penalty foul, although his attacking contributions helped Marseille withstand Angers' second-half comeback attempt and eventually secure a comfortable victory.
Comes off bench
Nnadi recorded no stats in Saturday's 4-0 win versus Strasbourg.
Analysis: Nnadi replaced Himad Abdelli in the 83rd minute and proceeded to record 24 passes. Nnadi featured only eight times last season, starting only four times and will aim to earn more starts this campaign.
Provides assist in first start
Nnadi assisted once to go with two shots (zero on goal), one cross (one accurate) and two chances created during Sunday's 1-1 draw against Nice.
Analysis: Nnadi set up Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg's 66th minute opener with a pinpoint cross to the back post that his captain powered home to put Marseille in front. Making his first start since arriving during the winter window, he looked sharp and composed in midfield, likely earning himself a steady role for the run-in. He added two shots, two chances created, one tackle and one interception to cap off an impressive shift that should have him right back in the mix for upcoming XIs.
