Events
Match Events
- 0' And we are off! Pau FC vs Chamois Niortais FC — let the football do the talking.
- 5' Both keepers have barely been tested. Pau FC and Chamois Niortais FC are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
- 10' The energy levels are beginning to show. Didier Tholot might look to freshen things up shortly.
- 13' Brahima Doukansy has been a constant threat and now delivers with a goal on 13 minutes.
- 18' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Sébastien Desabre will be considering his options from the bench.
- 20' The referee does not hesitate — a Red card for Issouf Paro on 20 minutes.
- 25' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 30' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Pau FC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 35' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 35 minutes.
- 36' Poor challenge from Victor Lobry. The referee spots it immediately and shows the Yellow card.
- 38' with the perfectly-timed delivery and Ebenezer Assifuah-Inkoom makes no mistake. 1-1!
- 43' Dylan Louiserre has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
- 45' Assisted by Steeve Beusnard with the perfectly-timed delivery and Cheikh Tidiane Sabaly makes no mistake. 2-1!
- 46' Time for substitution for Chamois Niortais FC. Darlin Yongwa is replaced by Lenny Vallier.
- 51' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
- 52' Romain Armand gets the nod from Pau FC. He replaces Yankuba Jarju and will look to change the dynamic.

- 59' Victor Lobry makes way for Quentin Daubin at the 59 minute mark. A tactical switch from Pau FC.
- 64' 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 Guy-Marcelin Kilama suffering a number of foals already.
