Match Events
- 0' KICK OFF: Valenciennes FC gets underway.
- 5' Supporters expect more eagerness from Noah Diliberto, as he is very good at scoring at Stade de l'Abbe Deschamps with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
- 10' Lilian Brassier has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 0 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 15' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Olivier Guegan will be considering his options from the bench.
- 20' 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 Alexandre Coeff suffering a number of foals already.
- 25' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 25 minutes.
- 30' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 35' AJ Auxerre is showing some good football. However, AJ Auxerre are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.

- 51' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 56' AJ Auxerre are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
- 58' Kevin Cabral is replacing Lilian Brassier for the Valenciennes FC side.

- 69' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. AJ Auxerre needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 74' A quiet spell here at Stade de l'Abbe Deschamps. AJ Auxerre seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
