Events
Match Events
- 0' The game is set. USL Dunkerque kicks off things out of here…
- 5' The home supporters are growing impatient. USL Dunkerque must find a spark to ignite this game.
- 7' Malik Tchokounte puts USL Dunkerque on the lead.

- 24' GOAL! Romain Armand fires home to make it 1-1!
- 29' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Romain Bayard made 220 appearances and scored 1 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.

- 46' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 0 times this season with winning -% of all matches.
- 51' 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 Scotty Sadzoute suffering a number of foals already.
