- 0' The game is set. SM Caen kicks off things out of here…
- 5' Pablo Martinez puts RC Strasbourg Alsace on the lead.
- 10' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.

- 22' Goal! Faycal Fajr scores his 6 goal in 399 matches.

- 53' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds.
