Events

Match Events

  • 0' Both captains have shaken hands and the referee is ready. We are underway at Allianz Riviera!
  • 5' Kasper Schmeichel has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 6 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 10' Racing Club de Lens 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.
  • 15' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
  • 20' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
  • 25' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
  • 30' Hicham Boudaoui has been relatively quiet despite scoring 11 goals in his last 444 appearances.
  • 35' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 40' OGC Nice are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined Racing Club de Lens backline.
  • 45' Wesley Said is having his name booked by the referee on 45.
  • 50' Brazil international Dante has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
  • 55' The Array continues to deliver drama. Both OGC Nice and Racing Club de Lens are desperate not to drop points on matchday .
  • 57' Lois Openda is replacing Jean Onana for the Racing Club de Lens side.
  • 60' Deiver Machado was booked on 60.
  • 64' The whistle greets Facundo Medina as he departs to be replaced by Massadio Haidara.
  • 69' Massadio Haidara has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
  • 71' Sofiane Diop is replacing Ross Barkley for the OGC Nice side.
  • 76' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His OGC Nice side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
  • 78' Sofiane Diop has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a Yellow card on 78.
  • 79' The referee does not hesitate — a Yellow card for Sofiane Diop on 79 minutes.
  • 81' A change in the OGC Nice ranks — Gaetan Laborde exits the field as Andy Delort enters on 81.
  • 86' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 88' Racing Club de Lens make a change. Deiver Machado trudges off to be replaced by Julien Le Cardinal on 88 minutes.
  • 90' Another change for OGC Nice made on 90 minute. Khephren Thuram-Ulie leaves to be changed by Mario Lemina.
  • Both sets of fans can go home satisfied — a 0-0 draw is a fair result on the day.
