Events

Match Events

  • 25' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His FC Lorient side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
  • 30' 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 Deiver Machado suffering a number of foals already.
  • 35' It looks like no one’s ball. FC Lorient is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 40' The referee shows FC Lorient player a Yellow card on 40.
