Events
Match Events
- 0' What a night it is going to be! FC Nantes welcome AJ Auxerre for this crunch clash at Stade de la Beaujoire.
- 5' 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.
- 10' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Antoine Kombouare will be considering his options from the bench.
- 14' Brilliant from the ! Moses Simon makes it 1-0 with a superb finish on 14.
- 19' Douglas Augusto has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 21 cards already picked up this season.
- 20' It’s a booking for AJ Auxerre player. Rayan Raveloson gets a card.
- 25' FC Nantes is showing some good football. However, FC Nantes are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 30' 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 Nathan Zeze suffering a number of foals already.
- 35' The home supporters are growing impatient. FC Nantes must find a spark to ignite this game.
- 40' named a 4-2-3-1 earlier, and opted for a 4-2-3-1 in response. A fascinating tactical duel is developing.
- 45' FC Nantes currently sit in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
- 50' has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 0 of the last 0 meetings.
- 53' Ado Onaiwu has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a card on 53.

- 63' The referee shows FC Nantes player a card on 63.
- 68' The travelling AJ Auxerre supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.

- 76' Another change for AJ Auxerre made on 76 minute. Gaetan Perrin leaves to be changed by Florian Aye.
- 77' FC Nantes ring the changes. Matthis Abline has done his job and it is now time for Tinotenda Kadewere to step up.
- 78' A tactical swap from FC Nantes — Mostafa Mohamed on, Moses Simon off on 78 minutes.
- 79' Poor challenge from Douglas Augusto. The referee spots it immediately and shows the card.
- 84' With 0 assists to his name this season, Alban Lafont is clearly more than just a goal scorer for AJ Auxerre.
- 86' The AJ Auxerre bench stirs into life. Ki-Jana Hoever is withdrawn and Kevin Danois gets his opportunity.
- 89' Another substitution for FC Nantes to replace Pedro Chirivella by Herba Guirassy on 89 minute.
- Time to leave. No sensation happened. Another win for FC Nantes players.
