Events

Match Events

0' Packed stands, loud atmosphere — Racing Club de Lens and Clermont Foot 63 get this one started.
3' GOAL! Florian Sotoca fires home to make it 1-0!
8' The energy levels are beginning to show. Franck Haise might look to freshen things up shortly.
13' Johan Gastien is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for Clermont Foot 63 so far.
18' The referee has no hesitation. Johan Gastien is booked for Clermont Foot 63 — card on 18.
23' Andy Pelmard has been relatively quiet despite scoring 0 goals in his last 450 appearances.
28' named a 3-4-2-1 earlier, and opted for a 3-4-2-1 in response. A fascinating tactical duel is developing.
33' Over 33 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
38' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Sepe Elye Wahi made 426 appearances and scored 54 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
40' That looks like a foul for a card for Elbasan Rashani.
45' Habib Keita has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a card on 45.
50' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
53' Poor challenge from Deiver Machado. The referee spots it immediately and shows the card.
58' Clermont Foot 63 is showing some good football. However, Clermont Foot 63 are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
63' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Racing Club de Lens needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
64' Grejohn Kyei gets the nod from Clermont Foot 63. He replaces Alan Virginius and will look to change the dynamic.
69' The travelling Clermont Foot 63 supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
74' Neto Borges is a natural defender and has been asked to do a very specific job for Racing Club de Lens tonight.
77' The Racing Club de Lens bench stirs into life. Angelo Fulgini is withdrawn and David Pereira da Costa gets his opportunity.
79' The referee has no hesitation. Yohann Magnin is booked for Clermont Foot 63 — card on 79.
84' Massadio Haidara is replacing Deiver Machado for the Racing Club de Lens side.

The referee blows the final whistle. Sensational lose for Clermont Foot 63.
