Beaten by Sassuolo as part of his training camp in Marbella eight days ago (2-3), OM played a second pre-season match on Monday.
Facing the Nîmes, currently 17e of Ligue 2, the Marseillais had to settle for a draw at the center Robert Louis-Dreyfus (1-1).
Pablo Pagis, the son of the former Olympian, opened the scoring for the Crocodiles (12e), and Payet, already a scorer a week earlier, replied in the second period (53e).

The Phocaeans resume the championship on Thursday December 29, against TFC (9 p.m.). A priori without their tricolor internationals Mattéo Guendouzi and Jordan Veretout, who return from Qatar on Monday.
