Match Events
- 0' ES Troyes AC have kicked off against SM Caen. Both sides are eager to make an early statement.
- 5' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
- 10' Dylan Chambost, a France , has 17 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
- 15' Dylan Saint-Louis has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
- 20' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 24' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Gabriel Mutombo Kupa.
- 28' The ES Troyes AC bench stirs into life. Gabriel Mutombo Kupa is withdrawn and Umut Bozok gets his opportunity.
- 32' ES Troyes AC is taking the lead after the goal scored by Tristan Dingome on 32.
- 33' Anthony Weber was booked on 33.
- 38' Rominigue Kouame is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for ES Troyes AC tonight.
- 43' The 33-year-old Gauthier Gallon has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
- 46' Maxime Barthelme has so much to prove this time. He replaces Alimami Gory on 46 minute.
- 51' 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 Ilyes Najim suffering a number of foals already.
- 56' The supporters are chanting for Nicholas Gioacchini. He replaces Caleb Zady Sery on 56 minute.
- 59' Another substitution for SM Caen to replace Johann Lepenant by Loup Hervieu on 59 minute.

- 69' Karim Azamoum is having his name booked by the referee on 69.
- 72' ES Troyes AC manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Levi Lumeka is hanging Dylan Saint-Louis on the field on 72 minute.

- 76' SM Caen make a change. Jessy Pi trudges off to be replaced by Azzeddine Toufiqui on 76 minutes.
- 78' Time for substitution for ES Troyes AC. Tristan Dingome is replaced by Rui Pires.
- 83' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both ES Troyes AC and SM Caen are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
- 88' ES Troyes AC 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.
- It finishes all square. ES Troyes AC and SM Caen share the spoils 1-0.
