Ounahi Shines as Marseille Edges Reims 2-1 in Ligue 1 Opener

A curling shot to make the nets vibrate, a sense of the game that led his team to victory. Azzedine Ounahi, the Atlas Lion of Olympique de Marseille, was the figurehead of the victory against Reims (2-1), on the first day of Ligue 1.
Playing outside his usual position as a relay midfielder and placed as a left winger, Ounahi unleashed himself on Saturday evening. Footmercato rates him 6.5, emphasizing his ability to balance the role between defense and attack and offer two key passes, despite sometimes a lack of precision in his dribbles.
His equalizing goal, described by Maxifoot as a "real gem", was a key moment of the match, giving them a score of 7/10. They also praised his ability to offer interesting solutions throughout the match.
90min also gave Ounahi a score of 7/10, highlighting his contribution to the creation of the game and his superb goal from 20 meters from the goal. According to the media, it is his dribbling skills that are particularly valuable for OM.
La Provence, in agreement with Butfootballclub, rated Ounahi 6/10, saluting his equalizing goal and his ability to get OM out of a difficult situation. Their analysis also reflects a few moments where Ounahi was slow to pass the ball, but overall, they recognized his central role in OM’s victory.
Olympique de Marseille may have been worrying in the first half, but with Ounahi’s superb curling shot and his constant contribution, the victory was secured. Quietly winning his place in Marcelino’s starting XI, as noted by Butfootballclub, Ounahi seems ready to have a great season.
