• Match Events

  • 0' The stage is set the green flag drops! Another match against Grenoble Foot 38 and FC Metz has kicked off!
  • 5' It’s high time Stephane Le Mignan made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 10' It looks surprising FC Metz does not make any changes. Benjamin Stambouli has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 15' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 20' It looks like no one’s ball. FC Metz is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 25' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Ablie Jallow made 431 appearances and scored 20 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 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.
  • 31' What a strike from Pape Ba! The score is 1-0.
  • 36' FC Metz 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.
  • 41' 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 Alexandre Oukidja suffering a number of foals already.
  • 46' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 51' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Grenoble Foot 38 that had 431 games and scored 308 goals.
  • 56' 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.
  • 59' The Grenoble Foot 38 manager makes a substitution. Arial Mendy departs to be replaced by Shaquil Delos.
  • 60' Maxime Colin is having his name booked by the referee on 60.
  • 61' It is a substitution in FC Metz team. Maxime Colin is replaced by Koffi Franck Kouao on 61 minute.
  • 66' Supporters expect more eagerness from Joel Asoro, as he is very good at scoring at Stade des Alpes with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
  • 68' Junior Olaitan has so much to prove this time. He replaces Dante Rigo on 68 minute.
  • 71' FC Metz manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Ibou Sane is hanging Jessy Deminguet on the field on 71 minute.
  • 76' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 76 minutes.
  • 81' Jessy Benet has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 32 appearances with only 2 goals this season.
  • 82' Another change for FC Metz made on 82 minute. Pape Diallo leaves to be changed by Morgan Bokele.
  • 87' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Grenoble Foot 38 needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 88' A meaty challenge results in booking for Ibou Sane on 88.
  • 90' Saikou Touray has so much to prove this time. He replaces Jessy Benet on 90 minute.
  • That’s it! Another goalless match for Grenoble Foot 38 and FC Metz (для сухой ничьи).
