Events

Match Events

  • 0' Three points are at stake. SM Caen host ES Troyes AC — let the battle begin!
  • 5' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
  • 10' Gabriel Mutombo Kupa is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for ES Troyes AC so far.
  • 15' 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.
  • 18' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Yoann Touzghar.
  • 23' Rominigue Kouame has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
  • 25' SM Caen player sees a Yellow card in front of him.
  • 30' The Array continues to deliver drama. Both SM Caen and ES Troyes AC are desperate not to drop points on matchday .
  • 35' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
  • 40' 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 Brandon Domingues suffering a number of foals already.
  • 45' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Jonathan Rivierez made 438 appearances and scored 5 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 50' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Laurent Batlles will be considering his options from the bench.
  • 55' SM Caen currently sit in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.

  • 65' Dylan Chambost has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 4 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 69' Dylan Saint-Louis makes way for Pape Ba at the 69 minute mark. A tactical switch from ES Troyes AC.
  • 74' SM Caen is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 75' Time for substitution for ES Troyes AC. Yoann Touzghar is replaced by Suk Hyunjun.
  • 80' The 39-year-old Anthony Weber has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
  • 81' The whistle greets Yoann Court as he departs to be replaced by Benjamin Jeannot.
  • 86' Time for substitution for ES Troyes AC. Dylan Chambost is replaced by Brandon Domingues.
