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 sneak on that occasion.
00:45And this is a nice attack there for Le Havre, a little bit of contact over on that right side
00:50and another yellow card within the space of 14 minutes and as Opry goes down.
01:00And then of course you can see scoring opportunity in the 17th minute.
01:05There it is taken, oh it's in the back of the net, off the post and in, how about that?
01:10That is sensational, Gaëtan Perrin has produced something absolutely marvellous.
01:18Free kick over the shop, off the post, the far post and in, and the 28th minute for Leone
01:26with an absolute beauty of a shot.
01:31Struck it very well over the outstretched hands of the giant colossal Le Havre goalkeeper, Althia Demas.
01:47Through ball, lovely touch, that is fantastic there from Kester,
01:52great opportunity here for his, for the other Moroccan tag team, he just couldn't get his ball over.
02:04Strong defensive, well that's nicely done but he's gone a little bit too far.
02:09Oh that's gone over the shop, well he's, he saw that coming, that's nicely done if he can get
02:13the ball back, wonderful touch, excellent, it's been set out, it's in the back of the net, he's
02:17got an equaliser, it's an own goal, what about the work there coming from Luis Nego,
02:25and very frustrating as the ball's knocked past his own goalkeeper and Leone couldn't do anything
02:32about that sometimes, but the pressure, Luis Nego, look what he did here, that is absolutely sublime
02:40and he just does the right thing, tries to get the ball to Kester,
02:46but of course you try whatever you possibly can
02:49to do to get rid of the danger and sometimes it is absolutely impossible.
03:02And an own goal puts them back.
03:05Level of course, and Elisha Orsan, great opportunity, can they find themselves with
03:14a shot on goal, ball comes back, Nego, Nego, Nego gets the ball across, anybody there for
03:18this shot, couldn't link up on it, it's still there for the take in, well Umairi
03:26thwarted, well that's a very dangerous piece of play, the ball comes across,
03:31oh no, how on earth was that not going, and Sumari is there, he's such a wonderful
03:40magician of a player, great ball to the left, left side, oh it's a wonderful save,
03:44a fantastic save there from Leone, but great work to get himself into that position, and he saw him
03:51die, and he wants to make amends, oh foul, well
04:03covered by Donovan Leone, yellow card of course goes to Huber, which turns to a red, and that is
04:09the end of his game here, and the new recruits here for Auxerre walks off the pitch, knowing that
04:18he's going to leave it, that is just a clumsy challenge from the Dutchman,
04:27and Ndai goes down quite hard, and that was the, the connect whistle has been blown,
04:35and here at the start, Oceane, halftime score, La Havre 1, Auxerre 1.
04:49Plenty of entertainment that we've seen here between these two teams,
04:54ninth and tenth position in Ligue 1 in the table,
04:58yeah, as we get the second half underway, time for us to find out what they're capable of doing
05:06here at La Havre, can they take advantage of the extra man, or will it all be about Auxerre,
05:11who just continue to apply the pressure, Tsunayoko, Jolie picking up yellow cards,
05:20now they've got to try and find other means of moving forward with, to
05:28the ever dangerous, Ndai nicely done, gets rid of his man, rifled into the corner, that is
05:36absolutely sensational from Ndai, missed his opportunity in the first half, buried his chance
05:45in the second, shrugging off his man, that is sensational, look what he does,
05:54gets the ball out wide, moves into position, looking for the ball in an onside position,
05:59takes that ball, gets rid of his man, and then fires it into the corner, and to be honest with you,
06:07that was a brilliant strike, there is nothing that Donovan Lyon could do, but watch that ball
06:15fly into the corner, and that is the perfect way to start the second half, I think
06:26the VAR, as you can see, is in progress, Marc Boulanger is just making sure that everything
06:38is okay, well an offside flag maybe,
06:53when the ball goes out to the right-hand side, that's the man who's offside,
06:58you can see it right in front of the referee, and that's a good call, two players, two options,
07:07down to the left-hand side, an opportunity, it's whipped in, nicely done, oh there you go,
07:19that should count, this is absolutely mad, because look what's happened,
07:27he's just gone and scored another, and Ndai is the man, he doesn't just redeem himself,
07:32because that was a perfectly fine goal, he wasn't offside, but he wanted to score that goal, and
07:37Didier Diga watches on, no one wants to be in an offside position, it comes across there,
07:43that is a fine finish indeed,
07:48left foot into the corner, kind of positioning it, look at it, takes a bounce and whizzes past Lyon,
07:55beautifully delivered as well, coming from that left, wonderful snazzy footwork, that's a great ball,
08:02oh it's just shot past the left, who comes back out, set up, free, oh it's a delightful shot there,
08:09picked up by Perrin, that's a nice ball, is he onside, the flag stays sad, Sinaioko, Sinaioko's
08:15shot, and it comes over to the other side, after Jollies on the, sorry Paul Jollies on the other
08:20Paul Jollies on the other side, and he picked him logically, great nice one-two, get rid of the ball,
08:27Opery squares the ball, opportunity here, oh it's a nice shot, but it's just a little bit too tame,
08:33but the idea, and they should be fine,
08:38Opery, ball across, there's a chance, well that's great defensive play, it's a penalty,
08:46they bring down the man who was racing through,
08:50and they get themselves to find, look at that from Opery,
08:55well he got there first, that is just, Marc Bollinger will just go up and have that checked,
09:02well he got there first, where's the contact,
09:14great running, Razamir, has been lightning quick in key moments,
09:23and even if the goal is not, if there's no penalty, I want to see a goal,
09:29if there's no penalty, I wonder if Monsieur Bollinger will, it is a penalty,
09:38blow the whistle, well we've just got the news of course, as you can hear,
09:44Oussama Taghali looks like he's going to be the player to take this,
09:53so sweet, so smooth, and a third goal for the Aave, Didier Diga's man, all smiles, the fans celebrate,
10:12and a 3-1 lead, that is logically victory, with two minutes over,
10:23and in time, look at that, a slick finish, right foot, Lowe taking the goalkeeper on the wrong way,
10:33and there's the final whistle, the Aave win their second match in three,
10:43and move up to six points in the table, with a fantastic victory against Auxerre,
10:51the final score, Aave 3, Auxerre 1.
