Events

Match Events

  • 0' KICK OFF: SM Caen gets underway.
  • 5' Julien Ponceau needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
  • 10' FC Lorient seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.

  • 17' What a strike from Tidiam Gomis! The score is 1-0.
  • 22' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
  • 27' 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 Laurent Abergel suffering a number of foals already.
  • 32' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. SM Caen needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 35' What an equalizer from Julien Ponceau!
