OLYMPIQUE de Marseille won for only the second time in Ligue 1 this season as Amine Harit and Himad Abdelli netted second-half goals in a 2-0 victory at Troyes on Sunday.
The victory lifted Marseille out of the relegation zone and ended a run of five successive defeats in all competitions for the former European champions, who have been hit by financial problems that left them unable to strengthen their squad for the season.
Harit, back after a loan spell in Turkey, was unmarked as he tucked away a close-range finish from Emerson's cross in the 50th minute.
Abdelli then scored his first for the club from the penalty spot with the last kick of the game seven minutes into stoppage time.
