Events

Match Events

  • 0' Three points are at stake. FC Lorient host SM Caen — let the battle begin!
  • 5' FC Lorient are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
  • 6' Assisted by Yoane Wissa with the perfectly-timed delivery and Pierre-Yves Hamel makes no mistake. 1-0!
  • 11' Houboulang Mendes needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Yellow cards this season.
  • 16' Clinical. Composed. Brilliant. Jessy Pi makes it 1-1.
  • 21' The home supporters are growing impatient. FC Lorient must find a spark to ignite this game.
  • 26' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both FC Lorient and SM Caen are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
  • 31' has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 0 of the last 0 meetings.
  • 36' Vincent Le Goff has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.
  • 41' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering SM Caen that had 399 games and scored 298 goals.

  • 54' 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 Matthieu Saunier suffering a number of foals already.
  • 59' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
  • 69' GOAL! Yoane Wissa scores on 69.
  • 72' Hugo Vandermersch catches the referee's attention in entirely the wrong way. Yellow card on 72.
