Events

Match Events

  • 0' KICK OFF: AJ Auxerre gets underway.
  • 5' 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 Saad Agouzoul suffering a number of foals already.
  • 10' Jaures Assoumou is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for AJ Auxerre tonight.
  • 15' AJ Auxerre is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 20' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 20 minutes.
  • 21' A goal from the Senegal international Abdoulaye N'Diaye! He fires home on 21 to make it 1-0!
  • 26' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.

  • 38' Controversy at the stadium! Gideon Mensah argues furiously but the card stands.
  • 43' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
  • 46' ES Troyes AC manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Junior Olaitan is hanging Rafiki Said Ahamada on the field on 46 minute.
  • 51' 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.
  • 56' Rayan Raveloson has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 0 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 61' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
  • 63' Fresh legs for AJ Auxerre! Florian Aye comes on to replace Ado Onaiwu.

  • 75' AJ Auxerre manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Colin Dagba is hanging Paul Joly on the field on 75 minute.
