- 0' It’s Showtime! The match between AJ Auxerre and Montpellier HSC is underway.
- 5' 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 Falaye Sacko suffering a number of foals already.
- 10' 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.
- 15' Modibo Sagnan has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 30 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 18' AJ Auxerre player sees a card in front of him.
- 23' It’s high time made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 28' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Montpellier HSC that had 416 games and scored 378 goals.

- 47' It’s gonna be a card for Bamo Meite.
- 52' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 57' It looks surprising AJ Auxerre does not make any changes. Fredrik Oppegard has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
