Events
Match Events
- 0' Three points are at stake. Le Havre AC host Lille OSC — let the battle begin!
- 5' It is a cagey affair so far. Le Havre AC in their 4-5-1 trying to find a way past Lille OSC's compact 4-2-3-1.
- 10' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Edon Zhegrova made 327 appearances and scored 25 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 15' Lucas Chevalier, a France goalkeeper, has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
- 20' Le Havre AC are deployed in a 4-5-1 today, looking to exploit space against Lille OSC's 4-2-3-1 shape.
- 25' Loic Nego is a natural right-back and has been asked to do a very specific job for Lille OSC tonight.
- 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 Christopher Operi suffering a number of foals already.
- 35' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 35 minutes.
- 40' Magnificent from Edon Zhegrova! That is 25 goals in 327 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
- 45' 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.
- 50' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 52' Ivan Cavaleiro does the damage! The net is bulging and Lille OSC surge ahead!
- 57' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His Le Havre AC side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
- 61' The whistle greets Issa Soumare as he departs to be replaced by Andy Logbo.
- 66' Lille OSC has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 1 of the last 1 meetings.
- 70' Josue Casimir makes way for Emmanuel Sabbi at the 70 minute mark. A tactical switch from Le Havre AC.
- 71' Rassoul N'Diaye makes way for Yassine Kechta at the 71 minute mark. A tactical switch from Le Havre AC.
- 76' It looks like no one’s ball. Le Havre AC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 77' Lille OSC make a change. Remy Cabella trudges off to be replaced by Hakon Haraldsson on 77 minutes.
- 82' The Array continues to deliver drama. Both Le Havre AC and Lille OSC are desperate not to drop points on matchday .
- 84' Another substitution for Le Havre AC to replace Abdoulaye Toure by Loic Nego on 84 minute.
- 86' Alan Virginius gets the nod from Lille OSC. He replaces Ivan Cavaleiro and will look to change the dynamic.
- 90' A change in the Lille OSC ranks — Angel Gomes exits the field as Ignacio Miramon enters on 90.
- The referee blows the final whistle. Sensational lose for Le Havre AC.
