  • 5' Both keepers have barely been tested. FC Metz and Angers SCO are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
  • 10' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
  • 15' Angers SCO come into this ranked in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
  • 20' The home supporters are growing impatient. FC Metz must find a spark to ignite this game.
  • 25' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering FC Metz that had 446 games and scored 378 goals.
  • 30' FC Metz are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
  • 35' FC Metz seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.

  • 54' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 59' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds.
