Events
Match Events
- 0' The game is set. AS Monaco FC kicks off things out of here…
- 4' What a moment for Takumi Minamino! That strike on 4 puts his side firmly in control.
- 9' 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 Eliesse Ben Seghir suffering a number of foals already.
- 10' The deadlock is broken! Maghnes Akliouche gets on the scoresheet on 10 minutes.
- 15' The 27-year-old Ismail Jakobs has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
- 16' GOAL! Vanderson fires home to make it 0-3!
- 21' has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 0 of the last 0 meetings.
- 24' Joel Asoro makes way for Pape Diallo at the 24 minute mark. A tactical switch from FC Metz.
- 29' FC Metz currently sit in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
- 34' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
- 39' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
- 44' 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.
- 49' It looks surprising FC Metz does not make any changes. Wilfried Singo has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 54' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Adi Hütter will be considering his options from the bench.
- 59' Youssouf Fofana, a France midfielder, has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
- 64' FC Metz are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined AS Monaco FC backline.
- 65' Krepin Diatta is replacing Takumi Minamino for the AS Monaco FC side.
- 70' named a 4-5-1 earlier, and opted for a 4-2-3-1 in response. A fascinating tactical duel is developing.
- 71' A tactical swap from FC Metz — Ablie Jallow on, Kevin Van Den Kerkhof off on 71 minutes.
- 76' The deadlock is broken! Folarin Balogun gets on the scoresheet on 76 minutes.
- 78' The Senegal Pape Diallo breaks the deadlock on 78 minutes. 1-4!
- 79' AS Monaco FC ring the changes. Aleksandr Golovin has done his job and it is now time for Edan Diop to step up.
- 82' The FC Metz bench stirs into life. Ababacar Lo is withdrawn and Ibou Sane gets his opportunity.
- 84' Clinical. Composed. Brilliant. Ibou Sane makes it 2-4.
- 87' What a moment for Folarin Balogun! That strike on 87 puts his side firmly in control.
- 89' The supporters are chanting for Mamadou Coulibaly. He replaces Vanderson on 89 minute.
- It finishes all square. FC Metz and AS Monaco FC share the spoils 2-5.
