  • 5' Supporters expect more eagerness from Nicholas Gioacchini, as he is very good at scoring at Stade Michel d'Ornano with 3 goals in the last 3 games.
  • 7' A moment of madness from Anthony Goncalves on 7 minutes earns him a Yellow card. SM Caen will be frustrated.
  • 11' What a strike from Yoric Ravet! The score is 0-1.
  • 12' Fresh legs for Grenoble Foot 38! Willy Semedo comes on to replace Yoric Ravet.
  • 17' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His SM Caen side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
  • 22' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both SM Caen and Grenoble Foot 38 are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
  • 24' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Jordy Gaspar.
  • 29' It looks like no one’s ball. SM Caen is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 34' Grenoble Foot 38 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.

  • 52' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 57' 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 Moussa Djitte suffering a number of foals already.
