Events
Match Events

- 10' AS Saint-Étienne are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.

- 18' Ibrahima Wadji doubles the advantage! 0-2 and this game is slipping away from the opposition.
- 23' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 0 times this season with winning -% of all matches.
- 28' AS Saint-Étienne started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 28.
- 33' FC Annecy have won 161 goals from 151 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
- 38' AS Saint-Étienne 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.
- 43' The travelling FC Annecy supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 48' has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 0 of the last 0 meetings.

- 76' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds.
