Events
Match Events
- 0' Welcome to Stade Bollaert-Delelis that hosts another battle between Racing Club de Lens and Lille OSC.
- 4' Burak Yilmaz has been a constant threat and now delivers with a goal on 4 minutes.
- 9' The 42-year-old Jose Fonte has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
- 14' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
- 19' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Lille OSC that had 479 games and scored 501 goals.
- 24' 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 Jonathan Ikone suffering a number of foals already.
- 29' Clement Michelin has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a Yellow card on 29.
- 34' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His Racing Club de Lens side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.

- 39' It’s gonna be a Yellow card for Luiz Araujo.
- 40' Burak Yilmaz does the damage! The net is bulging and Lille OSC surge ahead!
- 45' It looks like no one’s ball. Lille OSC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 50' Jeremy Pied needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Yellow cards this season.
- 55' Lille OSC are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
- 60' The Canada forward Jonathan David breaks the deadlock on 60 minutes. 0-3!
- 65' The referee calls foul for Jose Fonte. He receives a Yellow card.
- 67' Controversy at the stadium! Steven Fortes argues furiously but the Yellow card stands.

- 68' The whistle greets Jonathan Clauss as he departs to be replaced by Ismaelben Boura.
- 72' Racing Club de Lens make a change. Gael Kakuta trudges off to be replaced by Florian Sotoca on 72 minutes.
