- 0' In just a few seconds Stade Michel d'Ornano will turn into a battlefield for SM Caen and Paris FC.
- 5' The 28-year-old Migouel Alfarela has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.

- 20' SM Caen are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined Paris FC backline.
- 21' That is a Yellow card for SM Caen. Franklin Wadja will be fuming at that decision.

- 56' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds.

- 61' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
