Match Events

  • 0' Welcome to Stade des Costieres that hosts another battle between Nimes Olympique and AJ Auxerre.
  • 5' Nimes Olympique is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 9' What a moment for Gauthier Hein! That strike on 9 puts his side firmly in control.
  • 14' It looks surprising Nimes Olympique does not make any changes. Alexis Trouillet has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 19' Yassine Benrahou has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
  • 20' Against the run of play, Yassine Benrahou has scored! This game has turned on its head.
  • 25' GOAL! Gaetan Perrin scores on 25. Assisted by Carlens Arcus
  • 30' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
  • 35' Julien Ponceau has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 5 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 40' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 42' Lassine Sinayoko is having his name booked by the referee on 42.
  • 44' A meaty challenge results in booking for Carlens Arcus on 44.
  • 49' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both Nimes Olympique and AJ Auxerre are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
  • 54' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Jean-Marc Furlan will be considering his options from the bench.
  • 59' The supporters are chanting for Moussa Kone. He replaces Elias Mar Omarsson on 59 minute.
  • 60' The whistle greets Julien Ponceau as he departs to be replaced by Sidy Sarr.
  • 63' A tactical swap from AJ Auxerre — Hamza Sakhi on, Lassine Sinayoko off on 63 minutes.
  • 64' Nimes Olympique ring the changes. Patrick Burner has done his job and it is now time for Gaetan Paquiez to step up.
  • 69' Nimes Olympique is showing some good football. However, Nimes Olympique are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 74' Mathias Autret gets the nod from AJ Auxerre. He replaces Alexis Trouillet and will look to change the dynamic.
  • 79' Nimes Olympique are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
  • 84' Another change for AJ Auxerre made on 84 minute. Gaetan Perrin leaves to be changed by Aly Ndom.
  • 89' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
  • 90' That is a Red card for AJ Auxerre. Hamza Sakhi will be fuming at that decision.
  • Time to leave. No sensation happened. Another win for AJ Auxerre players.
