Events

Match Events

  • 0' Here we go! The referee blows the whistle and OGC Nice launch into their encounter with Olympique Lyonnais.
  • 5' Dante, a Brazil centre-back, has 42 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
  • 10' The home supporters are growing impatient. OGC Nice must find a spark to ignite this game.
  • 15' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 20' OGC Nice have won 370 goals from 444 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
  • 25' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His OGC Nice side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
  • 30' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
  • 35' The deadlock is broken! Karl Toko Ekambi gets on the scoresheet on 35 minutes.
  • 40' It looks like no one’s ball. Olympique Lyonnais is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 45' Olympique Lyonnais come into this ranked in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
  • 50' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both OGC Nice and Olympique Lyonnais are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
  • 55' It looks surprising Olympique Lyonnais does not make any changes. Jean-Clair Todibo has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 60' OGC Nice currently sit in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
  • 65' Brazil international Thiago Mendes has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 1 assists in the Array this season.
  • 67' The OGC Nice manager makes a substitution. Flavius Daniliuc departs to be replaced by Youcef Attal.
  • 68' Against the run of play, Houssem Aouar has scored! This game has turned on its head.
  • 73' 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 Jerome Boateng suffering a number of foals already.
  • 77' Fresh legs for OGC Nice! Alexis Claude Maurice comes on to replace Amine Gouiri.
  • 80' The Algeria Youcef Attal breaks the deadlock on 80 minutes. 1-2!
  • 83' The OGC Nice bench stirs into life. Kasper Dolberg is withdrawn and Evann Guessand gets his opportunity.
  • 85' Olympique Lyonnais receives a Red card for a hard tackle on 85.
  • 88' Olympique Lyonnais ring the changes. Karl Toko Ekambi has done his job and it is now time for Thiago Mendes to step up.
  • 89' Andy Delort adds to his 0 season tally! OGC Nice lead 2-2 — and this changes everything.
  • 90' Sinaly Diomande is replacing Houssem Aouar for the Olympique Lyonnais side.
  • 90' Controversy at the stadium! Evann Guessand argues furiously but the Yellow card stands.
  • Hope, you loved the show. Another epic battle is over with the score 3-2.
