  • 0' Here we go! The referee blows the whistle and AS Saint-Etienne launch into their encounter with FC Nantes.
  • 5' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
  • 10' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 15' It looks surprising AS Saint-Etienne does not make any changes. Alban Lafont has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 20' Abdoulaye Toure has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.
  • 23' A stunning finish from Mehdi Abeid — that came from absolutely nowhere!
  • 28' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His AS Saint-Etienne side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
  • 33' AS Saint-Etienne is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 38' Renaud Emond has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
  • 43' Both keepers have barely been tested. AS Saint-Etienne and FC Nantes are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
  • 46' Another substitution for AS Saint-Etienne to replace Ryad Boudebouz by Charles Abi on 46 minute.
  • 48' What a strike from Ludovic Blas! The score is 0-2.
  • 52' Wahbi Khazri is having his name booked by the referee on 52.
  • 57' AS Saint-Etienne currently sit in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
  • 62' A quiet spell here at Stade Geoffroy-Guichard. FC Nantes seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
  • 66' The crowd applauds Franck Honorat as he leaves the pitch. Maxence Rivera steps in for AS Saint-Etienne.
  • 67' Renaud Emond is replacing Abdoul Kader Bamba for the FC Nantes side.
  • 69' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Sergi Palencia.
  • 70' It’s gonna be a Yellow card for Imran Louza.
  • 75' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 80' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering AS Saint-Etienne that had 435 games and scored 401 goals.
  • 81' The supporters are chanting for Samuel Moutoussamy. He replaces Ludovic Blas on 81 minute.
  • 82' Edmilson Indjai is ready to make an impact after coming on for Arnaud Nordin at the 82 minute mark.
  • 87' AS Saint-Etienne is showing some good football. However, AS Saint-Etienne are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • Both sets of fans can go home satisfied — a 0-2 draw is a fair result on the day.
