  • 15' FC Girondins de Bordeaux are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
  • 20' FC Girondins de Bordeaux player sees a Red card in front of him.
  • 25' The travelling FC Nantes supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 30' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
  • 35' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both FC Girondins de Bordeaux and FC Nantes are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
  • 40' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 40 minutes.
  • 45' Charles Traore was booked on 45.
  • 46' The FC Girondins de Bordeaux manager makes a substitution. Josh Maja departs to be replaced by Remi Oudin.
  • 51' 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.
  • 56' With 0 assists to his name this season, Ludovic Blas is clearly more than just a goal scorer for FC Nantes.
  • 59' Nicolas de Preville has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a Yellow card on 59.
  • 64' The FC Girondins de Bordeaux bench stirs into life. Nicolas de Preville is withdrawn and Jimmy Briand gets his opportunity.

  • 80' 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 Abdoul Kader Bamba suffering a number of foals already.
