- 7' FC Metz is taking the lead after the goal scored by Cheikh Sabaly on 7.
- 12' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 17' Oumar Diakite is having a superb {COMPETITION} campaign — that is 0 goals this season for the forward.
- 22' Joel Asoro has been relatively quiet despite scoring 7 goals in his last 391 appearances.
- 25' That is a Yellow card for Stade de Reims. Teddy Teuma will be fuming at that decision.
- 30' Kevin N'Doram needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 16 Yellow cards this season.
- 35' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
- 40' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both FC Metz and Stade de Reims are fighting for every inch of the pitch.

- 68' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds.
