Olympique de Marseille? Who are they?

The club of Basil Boli, Jean-Pierre Papin, Chris Waddle and Mario Balotelli, that’s who.

One time European champions and easily one of the biggest clubs in Europe.

And yet, for reasons we’re not quite sure of, they played League Two’s Accrington Stanley on Thursday – and amazingly, lost.

Yep, 2018 Europa League finalists Marseille lost 2-1 to Accrington in a friendly, and it wasn’t even their reserve side.

Florian Thauvin, recently linked with Milan and Sampdoria, scored a second half goal for the French side but it wasn’t enough to get past Stanley.

You won’t see a weirder result anywhere in Europe this season – that’s a promise.
