Events

Match Events

  • 0' In just a few seconds Michel-d'Ornano will turn into a battlefield for SM Caen and En Avant Guingamp.
  • 5' Donatien Gomis is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for SM Caen so far.
  • 10' Hugo Picard, a France , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
  • 15' has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 0 of the last 0 meetings.
  • 20' Algeria international Anthony Mandrea has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
  • 25' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 25 minutes.
  • 30' It looks surprising SM Caen does not make any changes. Emmanuel Ntim has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 35' Gaetan Courtet has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 34 cards already picked up this season.
  • 40' named a earlier, and opted for a in response. A fascinating tactical duel is developing.
  • 45' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 46' Abdallah Ndour makes way for Vincent Manceau at the 46 minute mark. A tactical switch from En Avant Guingamp.
  • 51' En Avant Guingamp is showing some good football. However, En Avant Guingamp are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 56' Supporters expect more eagerness from Maxime Sivis, as he is very good at scoring at Michel-d'Ornano with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
  • 61' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Kalidou Sidibe made 430 appearances and scored 9 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 66' 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 Romain Thomas suffering a number of foals already.
  • 71' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
  • 73' The SM Caen manager makes a substitution. Hianga Mananga Mbock departs to be replaced by Godson Kyeremeh.
  • 74' Time for substitution for En Avant Guingamp. Hugo Picard is replaced by Abdallah Ndour.
  • 77' Brilliant from the forward! Amadou Sagna makes it 0-1 with a superb finish on 77.
  • 79' Controversy at the stadium! Donatien Gomis argues furiously but the card stands.
  • 79' Mickael Le Bihan has so much to prove this time. He replaces Yoann Court on 79 minute.
  • 84' En Avant Guingamp fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.
  • 85' It is a substitution in En Avant Guingamp team. Amine El Ouazzani is replaced by Jacques Siwe on 85 minute.
  • 90' A moment of madness from Kalidou Sidibe on 90 minutes earns him a card. En Avant Guingamp will be frustrated.
  • 90' Baptiste Roux is replacing Mehdi Merghem for the En Avant Guingamp side.
  • Both sets of fans can go home satisfied — a 0-1 draw is a fair result on the day.
