Sanchez helps Marseille knock PSG out of the French Cup

Date:

Former Arsenal striker Alexis Sanchez scored as Marseille knocked Paris Saint-Germain, a record 14-time winners, out of the French Cup.

Sanchez put the hosts ahead from the penalty spot after Sergio Ramos’ foul on Cengiz Under.

Ramos equalized the score, but “Marseille” won thanks to a goal by the midfielder of the Ukrainian national team Ruslan Malinovsky.

PSG included Lionel Messi and Neymar but were unable to find an equalizer in the Round of 16 tie.

Marseille, second in Ligue 1 behind PSG, last won the French Cup in 1988-89.

The two sides meet again on February 26 in the championship in Marseille, eight points behind the leaders.
