Events

Match Events

  • 0' The game is set. Valenciennes FC kicks off things out of here…
  • 5' It’s high time Jorge Maciel made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 10' has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 0 of the last 0 meetings.
  • 15' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Laurent Guyot will be considering his options from the bench.
  • 20' It looks surprising FC Annecy does not make any changes. Makabi Lilepo has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 25' Jonathan Buatu has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 20 cards already picked up this season.
  • 30' With 0 assists to his name this season, Samuel Ntamack is clearly more than just a goal scorer for FC Annecy.
  • 35' FC Annecy started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 35.
  • 40' Taylor Moore has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.
  • 45' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering FC Annecy that had 144 games and scored 151 goals.
  • 50' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
  • 52' The crowd applauds Martin Adeline as he leaves the pitch. Zakaria Bengueddoudj steps in for FC Annecy.
  • 55' Controversy at the stadium! Vincent Pajot argues furiously but the card stands.
  • 58' It’s gonna be a card for Tanguy Lienard.
  • 63' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
  • 68' Another substitution for FC Annecy to replace Jonathan Kodjia by Samuel Ntamack on 68 minute.
  • 72' Anthony Knockaert gets the nod from Valenciennes FC. He replaces Aymen Boutoutaou and will look to change the dynamic.
  • 77' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
  • 80' FC Annecy manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Kevin Testud is hanging Steve Shamal on the field on 80 minute.
  • 85' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Michel Diaz made 426 appearances and scored 0 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 90' The referee shows FC Annecy player a card on 90.
  • 90' Time for substitution for Valenciennes FC. Tanguy Lienard is replaced by Nick Venema.
  • It finishes all square. Valenciennes FC and FC Annecy share the spoils 0-0.
