MARSEILLE, France (AP) — Franck Honorat scored a second-half winner as Brest rallied past Marseille 2-1 to extend the longest winning run in the French league club’s top-flight history. The home loss at Stade Velodrome ended Marseille’s seven-match unbeaten run and missed the chance to consolidate second place behind runaway leader Paris Saint-Germain. PSG had a 12-point cushion before hosting fifth-placed Lens late Saturday. Brest moved to sixth-place, level on points with defending champion Lille, which beat Troyes 2-1.
