- 25' 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.
- 30' It’s high time Julien Stéphan made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 35' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds.

- 66' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Edouard Mendy made 420 appearances and scored 0 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
