Marseille centre-back Nicolas N'Koulou will be kicking himself after heading home an unfortunate own-goal in the first half of Sunday's Ligue 1 clash with Nantes.
Emblematic of the Cote d'Azur outfit's struggles this season, N'Koulou's error could loom large for a side sitting perilously close to the drop zone midway through it's fourth-from-last league fixture. Marseille currently sits 15th, six points clear of Gazelec Ajaccio and relegation ahead of Sunday's tilt at the Stade Velodrome.
Marseille has won just twice at home this season amid a horrific campaign, and not since a Sept. 13 defeat of Corsican minnows Bastia.
