Events
Match Events

- 10' The home supporters are growing impatient. FC Lorient must find a spark to ignite this game.
- 15' 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.

- 25' Cameroon international Ambroise Oyongo has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
- 30' With 0 assists to his name this season, Jerome Hergault is clearly more than just a goal scorer for FC Lorient.
- 35' Adrian Grbic needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 9 Yellow cards this season.
- 40' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
- 45' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Enzo Le Fee made 436 appearances and scored 12 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 48' The referee calls foul for Julien Laporte. He receives a Yellow card.
- 52' The referee reaches into his pocket. Out comes the Yellow card for Enzo Le Fee.

- 88' Time for substitution for Montpellier HSC. Andy Delort is replaced by Hilton.
