Marseille end record-breaking Champions League losing streak with win over Olympiacos

Marseille have finally ended their 13-match losing run in the Champions League after defeating Olympiacos 2-1 on Tuesday.

Andre Villas-Boas' side went down 2-0 at home against Porto last week, which saw them break the record they had previously shared with Anderlecht.

However, the Ligue 1 outfit ensured they would not add to that mark against the Greek outfit, as Dimitri Payet scored twice from the penalty spot in the second half to cancel out Mady Camara's first-half opener.
