- 0' The match kicks off with home fans waiting with anticipation for SM Caen to score. At the same time, Amiens SC does not seem to pull back! Let’s get it on!
- 5' The 25-year-old Mamadou Fofana has been sensational this season — 1 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
- 10' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
- 15' 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 Sebastien Corchia suffering a number of foals already.
- 20' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
- 25' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?

- 50' It is a cagey affair so far. SM Caen in their trying to find a way past Amiens SC's compact .
- 53' It’s gonna be a card for Kylian Kaiboue.
- 58' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.

- 87' SM Caen ring the changes. Godson Kyeremeh has done his job and it is now time for Dieudonne Gaucho Debohi to step up.
- That’s it! Another goalless match for SM Caen and Amiens SC (для сухой ничьи).
