Events
Match Events
- 0' KICK OFF: Grenoble Foot 38 gets underway.
- 5' Ryad Hachem is a natural midfielder and has been asked to do a very specific job for Grenoble Foot 38 tonight.
- 10' Magnificent from Hacene Benali! That is 11 goals in 269 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
- 15' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Red Star FC that had 269 games and scored 98 goals.
- 16' What a moment for Kemo Cisse! That strike on 16 puts his side firmly in control.
- 21' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
- 26' A quiet spell here at Stade de Paris (Stade Bauer). Grenoble Foot 38 seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
- 31' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
- 35' Magnificent from Joachim Eickmayer! That is 5 goals in 66 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
- 36' It is a substitution in Grenoble Foot 38 team. Dante Rigo is replaced by Jessy Benet on 36 minute.
- 41' Fred Dembi has been relatively quiet despite scoring 0 goals in his last 269 appearances.
- 43' Grenoble Foot 38 receives a card for a hard tackle on 43.
- 45' The referee does not hesitate — a card for Joachim Eickmayer on 45 minutes.
- 46' Eddy Sylvestre has so much to prove this time. He replaces Mamady Bangre on 46 minute.
- 51' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Eddy Sylvestre made 451 appearances and scored 7 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 53' What composure from Pape Ba! The Senegal international strokes it home. 3-1.
- 54' Saikou Touray picks up a card and will need to be extremely careful for the remainder of this match.
- 59' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Grenoble Foot 38 needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 60' Another change for Red Star FC made on 60 minute. Joachim Eickmayer leaves to be changed by Hianga Mananga Mbock.
- 65' Both keepers have barely been tested. Red Star FC and Grenoble Foot 38 are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
- 69' A change in the Grenoble Foot 38 ranks — Ayoub Jabbari exits the field as Nesta Elphege enters on 69.
- 74' Ivann Botella gets the nod from Red Star FC. He replaces Merwan Ifnaoui and will look to change the dynamic.
- 76' Hianga Mananga Mbock has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a card on 76.
- 81' Grenoble Foot 38 fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.
- 82' Grenoble Foot 38 ring the changes. Gaetan Paquiez has done his job and it is now time for Arial Mendy to step up.
- 87' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
- 90' A change in the Red Star FC ranks — Kemo Cisse exits the field as Josue Escartin enters on 90.
- 3-1 the final result. Grenoble Foot 38 will be bitterly disappointed.
