Events
Match Events
- 0' Welcome to Stade Raymond Kopa that hosts another battle between Angers SCO and AS Saint-Etienne.
- 5' 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.
- 10' Angers SCO have won 324 goals from 424 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
- 15' It looks surprising AS Saint-Etienne does not make any changes. Pape Abou Cisse has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 20' Both keepers have barely been tested. Angers SCO and AS Saint-Etienne are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
- 25' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 30' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
- 35' The 29-year-old Paul Bernardoni has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
- 40' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Angers SCO that had 424 games and scored 324 goals.
- 45' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
- 50' AS Saint-Etienne fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.
- 52' The deadlock is broken! Wahbi Khazri gets on the scoresheet on 52 minutes.
- 54' AS Saint-Etienne receives a Yellow card for a hard tackle on 54.
- 55' What an equalizer from Lois Diony!
- 57' A change in the Angers SCO ranks — Thomas Mangani exits the field as Mathias Pereira Lage enters on 57.
- 59' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Adil Aouchiche.
- 60' Ryad Boudebouz is replacing Charles Abi for the AS Saint-Etienne side.
- 65' Mahdi Camara has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 4 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 68' Stephane Bahoken is ready to make an impact after coming on for Lassana Coulibaly at the 68 minute mark.
- 73' The energy levels are beginning to show. Claude Puel might look to freshen things up shortly.
- 78' 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 Ibrahim Amadou suffering a number of foals already.
- 82' AS Saint-Etienne make a change. Wahbi Khazri trudges off to be replaced by Arnaud Nordin on 82 minutes.
- 87' Adil Aouchiche has been relatively quiet despite scoring 8 goals in his last 523 appearances.
- 88' A meaty challenge results in booking for Angelo Fulgini on 88.
- 90' A change in the AS Saint-Etienne ranks — Denis Bouanga exits the field as Anthony Modeste enters on 90.
- The final score is 0-1.
