Olympique de Marseille is a football team that plays in Ligue 1, the top level of the French Football League, based in Marseille. Founded in 1899, Marseille has won 9 French championships and 10 French Cups. The club also won the Champions League in 1993, defeating AC Milan in the final, only to be stripped of the domestic title that they had won in the same season following a match fixing scandal involving then president Bernard Tapie. In 1994, they suffered forced relegation to the second division due to financial irregularities. By 1996, backed by Adidas boss Robert Louis-Dreyfus, the club had worked their way back to the top flight. The team regularly fills their imposing home of the Stade Vélodrome, which seats 60,000.
