Events
Match Events
- 0' KICK OFF: Amiens SC gets underway.
- 5' has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 0 of the last 0 meetings.
- 10' The energy levels are beginning to show. Stephane Le Mignan might look to freshen things up shortly.
- 15' A stunning finish from Gauthier Hein — that came from absolutely nowhere!
- 20' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
- 21' GOAL! Cheikh Sabaly fires home to make it 2-0!
- 26' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering FC Metz that had 444 games and scored 375 goals.
- 31' Remy Vita needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
- 36' Louis Mafouta has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
- 41' FC Metz are deployed in a today, looking to exploit space against Amiens SC's shape.
- 43' A goal from the France international Gauthier Hein! He fires home on 43 to make it 3-0!
- 46' The supporters are chanting for Kylian Kaiboue. He replaces Frank Boya on 46 minute.
- 48' with the perfectly-timed delivery and Antoine Leautey makes no mistake. 3-1!
- 49' A meaty challenge results in booking for Gauthier Hein on 49.
- 54' It looks surprising FC Metz does not make any changes. Owen Gene has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 56' Poor challenge from Sebastien Corchia. The referee spots it immediately and shows the card.
- 61' Benjamin Stambouli is a natural defensive midfielder and has been asked to do a very specific job for Amiens SC tonight.
- 66' The home supporters are growing impatient. FC Metz must find a spark to ignite this game.
- 71' 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.
- 74' Another substitution for FC Metz to replace Benjamin Stambouli by Joseph N'Duquidi on 74 minute.
- 76' Kylian Kaiboue has been a constant threat and now delivers with a goal on 76 minutes.
- 81' 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 Koffi Franck Kouao suffering a number of foals already.
- 85' Poor challenge from Rayan Lutin. The referee spots it immediately and shows the card.
- 86' The FC Metz manager makes a substitution. Cheikh Sabaly departs to be replaced by Ibou Sane.
