Match Events

  • 0' It’s Showtime! The match between Olympique Lyonnais and AC Ajaccio is underway.
  • 5' The travelling AC Ajaccio supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 10' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
  • 12' Tete puts Olympique Lyonnais on the lead.
  • 17' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Alexandre Lacazette made 414 appearances and scored 129 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 20' It’s gonna be a Yellow card for Cedric Avinel.
  • 22' What a strike from Alexandre Lacazette! The score is 2-0.
  • 27' It’s gonna be a Red card for Anthony Lopes.
  • 30' Another substitution for Olympique Lyonnais to replace Houssem Aouar by Remy Riou on 30 minute.
  • 31' GOAL! Thomas Mangani scores on 31.
  • 33' A meaty challenge results in booking for Alexandre Lacazette on 33.
  • 34' The referee shows AC Ajaccio player a Yellow card on 34.
  • 39' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 39 minutes.
  • 41' It’s gonna be a Yellow card for Ismael Diallo.
  • 45' AC Ajaccio player sees a Red card in front of him.
  • 50' AC Ajaccio is showing some good football. However, AC Ajaccio are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 55' 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 Mathieu Coutadeur suffering a number of foals already.
  • 60' Olympique Lyonnais started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 60.
  • 65' It looks like no one’s ball. Olympique Lyonnais is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 70' It looks surprising AC Ajaccio does not make any changes. Thiago Mendes has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 71' Another change for AC Ajaccio made on 71 minute. Riad Nouri leaves to be changed by Yanis Cimignani.
  • 75' Time for substitution for Olympique Lyonnais. Karl Toko Ekambi is replaced by Bradley Barcola.
  • 80' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Olympique Lyonnais that had 424 games and scored 568 goals.
  • 85' It’s high time Olivier Pantaloni made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 89' The supporters are chanting for Rayan Cherki. He replaces Tete on 89 minute.
  • 90' AC Ajaccio receives a Yellow card for a hard tackle on 90.
  • Hope, you loved the show. Another epic battle is over with the score 2-1.
