Events
Match Events
- 0' KICK OFF: AS Saint-Etienne gets underway.
- 5' A quiet spell here at Stade Geoffroy Guichard. AS Saint-Etienne seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
- 10' The deadlock is broken! Lucas Stassin gets on the scoresheet on 10 minutes.
- 15' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
- 20' AS Saint-Etienne have won 386 goals from 429 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
- 24' A moment of madness from Lucas Stassin on 24 minutes earns him a card. AS Saint-Etienne will be frustrated.

- 46' Paul Akouokou makes way for Ainsley Maitland-Niles at the 46 minute mark. A tactical switch from Olympique Lyonnais.
- 51' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds.

- 74' The crowd applauds Aimen Moueffek as he leaves the pitch. Louis Mouton steps in for AS Saint-Etienne.
- 76' Against the run of play, Tanner Tessmann has scored! This game has turned on its head.
- 78' That is a card for AS Saint-Etienne. Leo Petrot will be fuming at that decision.
- 79' Dennis Appiah has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a card on 79.
- 84' named a 4-3-3 earlier, and opted for a 4-2-2-2 in response. A fascinating tactical duel is developing.

- 90' The referee has no hesitation. Clinton Mata is booked for Olympique Lyonnais — card on 90.
