Events
Match Events
- 0' KICK OFF: AJ Auxerre gets underway.
- 5' AJ Auxerre fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.
- 10' A stunning finish from Lassine Sinayoko — that came from absolutely nowhere!
- 15' 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 Gideon Mensah suffering a number of foals already.
- 20' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
- 25' Olympique de Marseille are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined AJ Auxerre backline.
- 30' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
- 35' Neal Maupay, a France forward, has 1 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
- 40' Gabriel Osho has been relatively quiet despite scoring 8 goals in his last 13 appearances.
- 43' Against the run of play, Gaetan Perrin has scored! This game has turned on its head.
- 45' Magnificent from Hamed Traore! That is 29 goals in 391 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
- 46' The Olympique de Marseille manager makes a substitution. Quentin Merlin departs to be replaced by Ulisses Garcia.
- 51' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Olympique de Marseille that had 479 games and scored 539 goals.
- 56' It’s high time Roberto De Zerbi made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 60' Poor challenge from Adrien Rabiot. The referee spots it immediately and shows the card.
- 65' The deadlock is broken! Mason Greenwood gets on the scoresheet on 65 minutes.
- 66' The referee reaches into his pocket. Out comes the card for Mason Greenwood.
- 67' Another substitution for Olympique de Marseille to replace Lilian Brassier by Geoffrey Kondogbia on 67 minute.
- 72' A quiet spell here at Orange Velodrome. AJ Auxerre seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
- 77' Michael Murillo gets the nod from Olympique de Marseille. He replaces Pol Mikel Lirola and will look to change the dynamic.
- 78' AJ Auxerre ring the changes. Lassine Sinayoko has done his job and it is now time for Assane Diousse to step up.
- 79' Fresh legs for AJ Auxerre! Theo Bair comes on to replace Kevin Danois.
- 84' Both keepers have barely been tested. Olympique de Marseille and AJ Auxerre are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
- 85' The crowd applauds Gaetan Perrin as he leaves the pitch. Ado Onaiwu steps in for AJ Auxerre.
- 87' Controversy at the stadium! Sepe Elye Wahi argues furiously but the card stands.
- 88' Theo Bair is having his name booked by the referee on 88.
- The final whistle goes. A composed, disciplined performance from AJ Auxerre to claim maximum points.
