Events

Match Events

  • 0' KICK OFF: Lille OSC gets underway.
  • 2' Yusuf Yazici doubles the advantage! 1-0 and this game is slipping away from the opposition.
  • 7' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
  • 12' Over 12 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
  • 17' Gabriel Gudmundsson has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.
  • 22' 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 Akor Adams suffering a number of foals already.
  • 27' The 20-year-old Leny Yoro has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
  • 32' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
  • 37' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 37 minutes.
  • 42' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 47' 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' Angel Gomes is having his name booked by the referee on 50.
  • 55' Benjamin Lecomte needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
  • 60' Fresh legs for Montpellier HSC! Arnaud Nordin comes on to replace Leo Leroy.
  • 61' Another change for Montpellier HSC made on 61 minute. Akor Adams leaves to be changed by Jordan Ferri.
  • 66' Montpellier HSC is showing some good football. However, Montpellier HSC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 69' The Lille OSC bench stirs into life. Remy Cabella is withdrawn and Hakon Haraldsson gets his opportunity.
  • 73' The referee has no hesitation. Alexsandro Ribeiro is booked for Lille OSC — Yellow card on 73.
  • 76' Kelvin Yeboah has so much to prove this time. He replaces Wahbi Khazri on 76 minute.
  • 81' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Musa Al Taamari made 149 appearances and scored 12 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 86' A change in the Montpellier HSC ranks — Musa Al Tamari exits the field as Sacha Delaye enters on 86.
  • 90' The referee does not hesitate — a Yellow card for Becir Omeragic on 90 minutes.
  • 90' Ivan Cavaleiro makes way for Edon Zhegrova at the 90 minute mark. A tactical switch from Lille OSC.
  • 1-0 the final result. Montpellier HSC will be bitterly disappointed.
