Marseille coach Gattuso gets first win as striker Aubameyang scores against Le Havre

PARIS (AP) — Gennaro Gattuso secured his first win as Marseille coach and striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang got his first league goal for the club in a 3-0 home win against Le Havre on Sunday.

Gattuso, the former Italy and AC Milan midfielder, took charge after Marcelino stood down amid tensions between fans and club management.

After midfielder Iliman Ndiaye’s cross led to an own goal from central defender Arouna Sangante in the 18th minute, the former Borussia Dortmund and Arsenal striker Aubameyang scored three minutes later with a clip over the goalkeeper after being set up by Morocco midfielder Amine Harit.

Le Havre midfielder Rassoul Ndiaye was sent off in the 40th minute for a second yellow card, and Aubameyang broke down the right before setting up Ismaila Sarr in the 84th.

Later Sunday, defending champion Paris Saint-Germain traveled to play Rennes and struggling Lyon hosted Lorient.
