0' We are underway at Orange Velodrome. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
5' Brighton & Hove Albion FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
10' It looks surprising Olympique de Marseille does not make any changes. Pascal Gross has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
15' It looks like no one’s ball. Olympique de Marseille is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
19' GOAL! Chancel Mbemba scores on 19. Assisted by Jonathan Clauss
20' GOAL! Jordan Veretout scores on 20. Assisted by Amine Harit
25' 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 Valentin Rongier suffering a number of foals already.
30' Brighton & Hove Albion FC 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.
35' 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.
40' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
45' Billy Gilmour has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 61 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
50' Time for substitution for Olympique de Marseille. Jordan Veretout is replaced by Azzedine Ounahi.
54' What a strike from Pascal Gross! The score is 2-1.
56' The referee shows Brighton & Hove Albion FC player a card on 56.
61' Supporters expect more eagerness from Leonardo Balerdi, as he is very good at scoring at Orange Velodrome with 5 goals in the last 5 games.
62' Another substitution for Olympique de Marseille to replace Joaquin Correa by Ismaila Sarr on 62 minute.
67' The whistle greets Mahmoud Dahoud as he departs to be replaced by Billy Gilmour.
72' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Brighton & Hove Albion FC that had 336 games and scored 453 goals.
77' Another change for Brighton & Hove Albion FC made on 77 minute. Danny Welbeck leaves to be changed by Evan Ferguson.
79' Another change for Olympique de Marseille made on 79 minute. Iliman Ndiaye leaves to be changed by Renan Lodi.
84' Brighton & Hove Albion FC receives a card for a hard tackle on 84.
86' A meaty challenge results in booking for Jonathan Clauss on 86.
88' Goal! Joao Pedro scores his 63 goal in 386 matches.
89' The referee calls foul for Leonardo Balerdi. He receives a card.
90' The referee shows Brighton & Hove Albion FC player a card on 90.
Hope, you loved the show. Another epic battle is over with the score 2-2.
