  • 0' In just a few seconds Stade Michel d'Ornano will turn into a battlefield for SM Caen and AC Ajaccio.
  • 3' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Alexis Beka Beka.
  • 8' 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 Benjamin Jeannot suffering a number of foals already.
  • 13' The energy levels are beginning to show. Pascal Dupraz might look to freshen things up shortly.
  • 18' Anthony Weber is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for SM Caen tonight.
  • 23' SM Caen have won 298 goals from 399 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
  • 28' AC Ajaccio are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
  • 33' It is a cagey affair so far. SM Caen in their trying to find a way past AC Ajaccio's compact .

  • 40' SM Caen is showing some good football. However, SM Caen are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 45' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
  • 50' SM Caen currently sit in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
  • 55' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 60' Both keepers have barely been tested. SM Caen and AC Ajaccio are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
  • 65' Ismael Diallo catches the referee's attention in entirely the wrong way. Yellow card on 65.
  • 69' The AC Ajaccio bench stirs into life. Mounaim El Idrissy is withdrawn and Hugo Cuypers gets his opportunity.
  • 74' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
  • 75' A tactical swap from SM Caen — Anthony Goncalves on, Yoel Armougom off on 75 minutes.

  • 81' Malik Tchokounte is replacing Nicholas Gioacchini for the SM Caen side.
  • 84' The supporters are chanting for Herman Moussaki. He replaces Alexis Beka Beka on 84 minute.
