Events
Match Events
- 0' Both captains have shaken hands and the referee is ready. We are underway at Stade Auguste Delaune!
- 5' Samuel Kotto is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for Stade de Reims tonight.
- 10' 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 Omar Sadik suffering a number of foals already.
- 14' A stunning finish from Kyliane Dong — that came from absolutely nowhere!
- 19' Stade de Reims is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 21' The France Kyliane Dong breaks the deadlock on 21 minutes. 0-2!
- 25' Magnificent from Mohammed Daramy! That is 9 goals in 105 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
- 30' 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.
- 35' Keito Nakamura has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 9 cards already picked up this season.
- 38' A stunning finish from Keito Nakamura — that came from absolutely nowhere!
- 39' Sensational shot from Keito Nakamura. Stade de Reims is back in the lead.
- 44' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
- 49' A goal from the Japan international Keito Nakamura! He fires home on 49 to make it 4-2!
- 53' It’s gonna be a card for Abdoul Kone.
- 58' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Ewen Jaouen made 416 appearances and scored 0 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 61' GOAL! Keito Nakamura fires home to make it 5-2!
- 62' Poor challenge from John Patrick. The referee spots it immediately and shows the card.
- 67' Esteban Salles needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
- 72' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Thierry Debès will be considering his options from the bench.
- 76' Keito Nakamura has been a constant threat and now delivers with a goal on 76 minutes.
- 81' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 81 minutes.
- 86' Julien Anziani is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for Pau FC so far.
- Stade de Reims celebrates a vital win. Three points that could prove pivotal come season's end.
