Events
Match Events
- 0' FC Annecy have kicked off against Pau FC. Both sides are eager to make an early statement.
- 5' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
- 10' Poor challenge from Hamjatou Soukouna. The referee spots it immediately and shows the card.
- 15' 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 Henri Saivet suffering a number of foals already.
- 20' FC Annecy looks like a favorite considering 1 games won in last 1 matches with its main striker Axel Drouhin scoring 1 goals.
- 25' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His FC Annecy side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
- 30' The 30-year-old Florian Escales has been sensational this season — 1 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
- 35' Guinea international Ousmane Kante has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
- 40' Pau FC have won 236 goals from 219 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
- 45' A quiet spell here at Parc des Sports d'Annecy. FC Annecy seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
- 46' The Pau FC manager makes a substitution. Johann Obiang departs to be replaced by Charles Boli.
- 51' Charles Boli has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
- 56' Pau FC player sees a card in front of him.
- 61' Pau FC make a change. Yanis Begraoui trudges off to be replaced by Mons Bassouamina on 61 minutes.
- 65' Fresh legs for FC Annecy! Brian Beyer comes on to replace Kapitbafan Djoco.
- 66' A change in the FC Annecy ranks — Clement Billemaz exits the field as Yacouba Barry enters on 66.
- 71' Ousmane Camara makes way for Samuel Ntamack at the 71 minute mark. A tactical switch from FC Annecy.
- 72' Kouadio Ange Ahoussou is replacing Xavier Kouassi for the Pau FC side.
- 77' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Pau FC that had 219 games and scored 236 goals.

- 83' A tactical swap from Pau FC — Alberto Costa on, Louis Mouton off on 83 minutes.

- The final whistle. It looks like we are having a draw.
