38th and final day of Ligue 2 this Friday. AS Saint-Étienne has the best chances on the lawn of Quevilly Rouen Métropole and could move up to Ligue 1 in the event of a goal.
21:54 – Mbuku on the ground (52′)
Marc Bollengier interrupts the youngster because the Saint-Etienne winger is on the ground after a muscular intervention from Yade. Nathanaël Mbuku ends up getting up.
21:52 – Nadé’s daring attempt (49′)
The Greens defender is very far away and attempts a powerful shot but it is well off target. The Stéphanois return with big intentions in this second period of Quevilly – Saint-Étienne.
21:51 – Petrot’s strong cross (47′)
The Stéphanois full-back does not think and crosses hard at first intention but his attempt is too slippery and fails in touch.
21:50 – A change at half-time (46′)
Jean-Louis Garcia made a change at half-time of this Quevilly – Saint-Étienne with the entry of Soumano in place of Cadiou.
9:49 p.m. – Here we go again!
Two minutes late, the second period of this Quevilly – Saint-Étienne has just started. The Greens have 45 minutes to seek possible promotion in League 1.
9:46 p.m. – Fireworks
As the second period of this Quevilly – Saint-Étienne was about to begin, the Saint-Etienne supporters took out the smoke bombs and set off fireworks, thus delaying the start of the second act.
9:35 p.m. – The standings situation at the break
At half-time of this Quevilly – Saint-Étienne the situation in the standings is the same as before the start of the 38th day of Ligue 1. The Greens are 3rd, two lengths behind Angers who are also held in check against Dunkirk.
9:30 p.m. – It’s the break!
Marc Bollengier whistles the end of this first period of Quevilly – Saint-Étienne. Still no goal at Robert-Diochon despite the biggest chances for the Greens. QRM also scored but the goal was disallowed for an offside position.
21:27 – Good tackle from Cissokho (43′)
The Quevilly defender made a superb tackle at the feet of Cardona who was trying to take the leather to face Leroy in a duel.
21:25 – The frame slips away (42′)
Jason Pendant is in a tight angle in the penalty area and tries to deceive Green’s vigilance but the QRM full-back’s shot misses.
21:23 – Bouchouari does not fit (39′)
The Saint-Étienne midfielder tries to score his first goal of the season but his curler does not return to Leroy’s frame. The Greens still lack precision in this Quevilly – Saint-Étienne.
9:20 p.m. – Briançon’s good intervention (36′)
The Greens defender is impeccable on this powerful cross from Camara. He manages to steal the leather and then relieve his defense in this Quevilly – Saint-Étienne.
21:17 – The first card (33′)
Marc Bollengier takes action for the first time in this Quevilly – Saint-Étienne. Moueffek gets ahead of Gbelle in surprise. The latter tackles and does not touch the ball.
9:15 p.m. – ANOTHER RESCUE (31′)
THE THREAT IS DEFINITELY BEING CLARIFIED! Sissoko tries his luck in a pivot but his shot is repelled by Coulibaly who makes a heroic return. Leroy may have been on the trajectory but nothing is certain.
9:13 p.m. – THE DOUBLE OPPORTUNITY! (28′)
It was the 1-0 ball!! Cardona is thrown to the edge of offside by Chambost, eliminates Leroy and pushes the ball but Cissokho saves his side in front of his line before Cisse replaces him once again against Cardona.
21:11 – Leroy hurries a little (27′)
The Quevilly goalkeeper tries to put some rhythm into this meeting but his quick recovery does not find a target. Jean-Louis Garcia’s players lose the ball very quickly in this Quevilly – Saint-Étienne.
21:10 – It’s a failure for Yade (26′)
The QRM winger returns to the center and connects with his left foot but it is largely missed.
21:08 – Still no goal in Angers (25′)
In Angers, no goals were scored between SCO and Dunkirk. If ASSE opens the score in this Quevilly – Saint-Étienne, the Greens would then temporarily move to second place.
21:06 – Cardona dares (22′)
On a long opening, the Saint-Etienne winger attempts a Van Basten-style gesture with a first-intention volley from a tight angle. He is less successful than the former Dutch striker.
9:04 p.m. – Nadé’s screening! (20′)
The Stéphanois defender recovers and then offers a solution but his cross is blocked into touch. On the throw-in, Nadé receives a cross and attempts a recovery but Leroy lies down well on the leather. This is the first opportunity for the Greens in this Quevilly – Saint-Étienne.
21:02 – Chambost’s unscrewed recovery (19′)
The Greens community is completely missing in this Quevilly – Saint-Étienne. On a ball lying around, Chambost volleys but his attempt is missed.
21:01 – Petrot’s center (16′)
Chambost throws Petrot in the left lane. The latter crosses hard to the near post but Leroy beats Sissoko who was waiting for the ball.
20:59 – The little Cisse bridge (15′)
Superb gesture from the QRM side. He allows himself a brilliant little bridge over Chambost which could not do anything.
20:57 – The Greens are in control (13′)
After almost a quarter of an hour of play in this Quevilly – Saint-Étienne, the Stéphanois have the ball and are trying to settle into the opposing half. However, the biggest thrill was for the Greens who conceded a disallowed goal.
20:55 – Sissoko tries his hand (11′)
The Saint-Etienne striker has an interesting free kick to play from around twenty meters away but Sissoko’s shot is slowed down by the wall and ends up in the gloves of the Leopards goalkeeper.
