- 2' Nimes Olympique is taking the lead after the goal scored by Rafiki Said Ahamada on 2.
- 7' 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.
- 12' It looks like no one’s ball. Pau FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
