00:00Here we go then, it's time for this Ligue 1 clash. It is Le Havre up against Auxerre.
00:12A mid-table tussle between these two teams,
00:18who as I said looking to try and get themselves a good place in the top six if possible.
00:25That was the attempted pass through there from Luig Nego.
00:34Good work here for Le Havre, down the right-hand side has been picked up here by Nego.
00:39Working well with Kersten as Nego gets it back, oh it's a wonderful scoring opportunity in the
00:4517th minute. There it is taken, oh it's in the back of the net, off the post and in, how about that?
00:52That is sensational, Gaetan Perrin has produced something absolutely marvellous.
01:00Free kick over the shop, off the post, the far post and in, and the 28th minute for Lyonnais
01:09with an absolute beauty of a shot. Struck it very well over the outstretched hands of
01:17the giant colossal Le Havre goalkeeper, Althia Demas.
01:31Through ball, lovely touch, that is fantastic there from Kersten,
01:34great opportunity here for the other Moroccan tag team, he just couldn't get his ball over.
01:47Strong defensive, well that's nicely done but he's gone a little bit too far,
01:51oh that's gone over the shop, well he's, he saw that coming, that's nicely done,
01:55if he can get the ball back, wonderful touch, excellent, it's been set down,
01:58it's in the back of the net, he's got an equaliser, it's an own goal.
02:02What about the work there coming from Luig Nego, and very frustrating as the ball's
02:10not past his own goalkeeper, and Leon couldn't do anything about that sometimes.
02:17But the pressure, Luig Nego, look what he did here, that is absolutely sublime,
02:23and he just does the right thing, tries to get the ball to Kersten,
02:28but of course you try whatever you possibly can to do to get rid of the danger,
02:34and sometimes it is absolutely impossible.
02:37And an own goal puts them back,
02:50level of course, and Alicia Orsan, great opportunity, can they find themselves with a
02:56shot on goal, ball comes back, Nego, Nego, Nego gets the ball across, anybody there for the shot,
03:01couldn't link up on it, it's still there for the take in, well, Sumari,
03:09thwarted, well that's a very dangerous piece of play, the ball comes across,
03:13in the back of the net, oh no, how on earth was that not going?
03:18And Sumari's there, he's such a wonderful magician of a player, great ball to the left,
03:24left side, oh it's a wonderful save, a fantastic save there from Leon,
03:29but great work to get himself into that position, and you saw him die,
03:36and he wants to make amends, oh foul, well
03:45covered by Donovan Leon, yellow card of course goes
03:48to Huber, which turns to a red, and that is the end of his game here,
03:54and the new recruits here for Ogier, walks off the pitch, knowing that he's going to leave it,
04:03that is just a clumsy challenge from the Dutchman,
04:09and Ndai goes down quite hard, and that was the, the connect whistle has been blown,
04:17and here at the start, Oceane, halftime score, La Havre 1, Ogier 1.
04:31Plenty of entertainment that we've seen here between these two teams,
04:36ninth and tenth position in league, and in the table,
04:40yeah, as we get the second half underway, time for us to find out what they're capable of doing
04:48here at La Havre, can they take advantage of the extra man, or will it all be about Ogier,
04:53who just continue to apply the pressure, Tsunayoko, Jolie picking up yellow cards,
05:02now they've got to try and find other means of moving forward with, to
05:10the ever dangerous, Machiare, nicely done, gets rid of his man, rifled into the corner,
05:18that is absolutely sensational from Ndai, missed his opportunity in the first half,
05:25buried his chance in the second, shrugging off his man, lying, that is sensational, look what he does,
05:37gets the ball out wide, moves into position, looking for the ball in an on-side position,
05:41takes that ball, gets rid of his man, and then fires it into the corner, and to be honest with you,
05:49that was a brilliant strike, there is nothing that Donovan Lyon could do, but watch that ball
05:58fly into the corner, and that is the perfect way to start the second half, I think
06:08the VAR, as you can see, is in progress, Marc Boulanger is just making sure that everything
06:20is okay, well an offside flag maybe
06:36when the ball goes out to the right-hand side, that is the man who is offside, you can see it
06:41right in front of the referee, and that is a good call, two players, two options
06:49down to the left-hand side, an opportunity is whipped in, nicely done, oh there you go,
07:01that should count, this is absolutely mad, because look what's happened,
07:09he's just gone and scored another, and Ndai is the man, he doesn't just redeem himself, because that
07:14was a perfectly fine goal, he wasn't offside, but he wanted to score that goal, and Didier Diga
07:21watches on, no one wants to be in an offside position, it comes across there, that is a fine
07:26finish indeed, left foot into the corner, kind of positioning it, look at it, takes a bounce and whizzes
07:36past Leon, beautifully delivered as well, coming from that left, wonderful snazzy footwork, that's a
07:45great ball, oh it's just shot past the left, comes back out, set up, free, oh it's a delightful shot
07:52there, picked up by Perrin, that's a nice ball, is he onside, the flag stays out, Sinaioko, Sinaioko
07:58shots, and it comes over to the other side, after Jollies on the, sorry Paul Jollies on the other
08:04side, and he picked him logically, great nice one-two, get rid of the ball, and Le Havre do the, Opery
08:10squares the ball, opportunity here, oh it's a nice shot, but it's just a little bit too tame,
08:16but the idea, and they should be fine,
08:20Opery, ball across, there's a chance, well that's great defensive play, it's a penalty, they bring
08:29down the man, who is racing through, and they get themselves, to find, look at that from Opery,
08:37well he got there first, that is just, Marc Bollinger, will just go up and have that checked
08:52well he got there first, where's the contact
08:59great running, Azamir has been lightning quick in key moments
09:09and even if the goal is not, if there's no penalty, I wonder if Monsieur Bollinger will,
09:17it is a penalty, blow the whistle, well we've just got the news of course, as you can hear
09:26and Oussama Taghali, looks like he's going to be the player to take this
09:38Flores scored, the midfielder from Guinea-Conakry, with that right foot of his,
09:44oh so sweet, so smooth, and a third goal for Le Havre, Didier Diga's man, all smiles, the fans
09:54celebrate, and a 3-1 lead, that is logically victory, with two minutes over,
10:05added time, look at that, a slick finish, right foot, Lowe taking the goalkeeper on the wrong way
10:16and there's the final whistle, Le Havre win their second match in three
10:25and move up to six points in the table, with a fantastic victory against Auxerre,
10:33the final score Le Havre 3-1
