- 0' It’s Showtime! The match between AC Ajaccio and Valenciennes FC is underway.
- 5' Valenciennes FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 8' GOAL! Ben Hamed Toure scores on 8. Assisted by Riad Nouri
- 13' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 18' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Mohamed Youssouf made 402 appearances and scored 2 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 23' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 28' Joachim Kayi Sanda needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
- 29' It’s gonna be a card for Clement Vidal.
- 31' What an equalizer from Yassine Haouari!
- 36' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
- 41' It looks like no one’s ball. Valenciennes FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 42' What a strike from Yoann Touzghar! The score is 2-1.
- 47' The travelling Valenciennes FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 52' It looks surprising AC Ajaccio does not make any changes. Julien Masson has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 57' The Valenciennes FC manager makes a substitution. Yassine Haouari departs to be replaced by Nick Venema.
- 62' Valenciennes FC seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
- 64' Valenciennes FC player sees a card in front of him.
- 69' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Thomas Mangani suffering a number of foals already.
- 74' The AC Ajaccio manager makes a substitution. Ben Hamed Toure departs to be replaced by Moussa Soumano.
- 78' Time for substitution for Valenciennes FC. Aymen Boutoutaou is replaced by David Kjaer Kruse.
- 83' Andrew Jung has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 0 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 86' It is a substitution in AC Ajaccio team. Yoann Touzghar is replaced by Valentin Jacob on 86 minute.
- Time to leave. No sensation happened. Another win for AC Ajaccio players.
