- 0' And we are off! Le Havre AC vs ES Troyes AC — let the football do the talking.
- 5' ES Troyes AC have won 360 goals from 445 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
- 10' Over 10 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
- 15' Rominigue Kouame needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Yellow cards this season.
- 20' 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.
- 21' The referee reaches into his pocket. Out comes the Yellow card for Florian Tardieu.
- 22' Barnabas Bese makes no mistake. The score reads 1-0 and Le Havre AC are in front.
- 27' Both keepers have barely been tested. Le Havre AC and ES Troyes AC are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
- 32' The home supporters are growing impatient. Le Havre AC must find a spark to ignite this game.
- 37' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His Le Havre AC side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
- 42' The energy levels are beginning to show. Paul Le Guen might look to freshen things up shortly.
- 43' Jean-Pascal Fontaine has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a Yellow card on 43.
- 45' The referee reaches into his pocket. Out comes the Yellow card for Maxime Barthelme.
- 50' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.

- 63' The crowd applauds Rominigue Kouame as he leaves the pitch. Pape Ba steps in for ES Troyes AC.
- 68' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds.
