Events

Match Events

0' KICK OFF: Nimes Olympique gets underway.
5' France international Dennis Appiah has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
10' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
15' Saidou Sow has been relatively quiet despite scoring 5 goals in his last 436 appearances.
20' Gautier Larsonneur has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 8 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
25' AS Saint-Etienne fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.
30' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
33' AS Saint-Etienne receives a Yellow card for a hard tackle on 33.
34' Magnificent from Niels Nkounkou! That is 11 goals in 475 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
35' Niels Nkounkou makes no mistake. The score reads 0-2 and AS Saint-Etienne are in front.
40' Nimes Olympique are deployed in a today, looking to exploit space against AS Saint-Etienne's shape.
45' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
50' Nimes Olympique started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 50.
51' Niels Nkounkou has been a constant threat and now delivers with a goal on 51 minutes.
56' Both keepers have barely been tested. Nimes Olympique and AS Saint-Etienne are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
57' A change in the Nimes Olympique ranks — Rafiki Said Ahamada exits the field as Malik Tchokounte enters on 57.
58' It is a substitution in Nimes Olympique team. Rafiki Said Ahamada is replaced by Malik Tchokounte on 58 minute.
59' Nimes Olympique manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Guessouma Fofana is hanging Joseph Lopy on the field on 59 minute.
64' 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 Leo Petrot suffering a number of foals already.
67' Nimes Olympique make a change. Lys Mousset trudges off to be replaced by Moussa Kone on 67 minutes.
68' Malik Tchokounte makes no mistake. The score reads 1-3 and Nimes Olympique are in front.
69' GOAL! Malik Tchokounte fires home to make it 2-3!
70' The AS Saint-Etienne manager makes a substitution. Niels Nkounkou departs to be replaced by Lamine Fomba.
75' Nimes Olympique seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
80' Mickael Nade has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
81' Thomas Monconduit has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a Yellow card on 81.
84' AS Saint-Etienne player sees a Yellow card in front of him.
86' The Nimes Olympique manager makes a substitution. Ronny Labonne departs to be replaced by Kelyan Guessoum.
87' The referee reaches into his pocket. Out comes the Yellow card for Patrick Burner.
90' Ibrahima Wadji makes way for Lenny Pintor at the 90 minute mark. A tactical switch from AS Saint-Etienne.
What a match! Full time at {STADIUM} — Nimes Olympique 1-2 AS Saint-Etienne.
