00:00Away we go, Leon kick off then in the dark strip and the ball immediately goes back to Luka Peri.
00:07A man who has taken over from Antony Lopez in goal for Leon in every way possible with the
00:19legend of the club having left the north he made his debut for the Canaries last weekend.
00:23He's not going to be the only departure I think with a side who desperately need to show the
00:33league that they are financially solvent. They have the threat of automatic demotion
00:40hanging over them if they cannot provide enough evidence by the end of the season
00:44that they are financially secure. Ajour picks it up, Brest now on the attack, in it comes,
00:56Ajour first save and first goal and it's Kamara the former San Tetien man.
01:04Terrific start by the Pirates raiding within seven minutes at the start as he
01:17chases the seven that he scored last season. Well it was Ajour who got there,
01:22Tesman unable to pick up the ball and Ajour continued his run he might have had the goal
01:28himself in the endo. The save by Peri but the follow-up by Mardy Kamara and Brest have been
01:38so good at home this season unlike away get off to the perfect start it's 1-0.
01:49Brest with the perfect start now they have to hold on as Leon captain Alexander Lacazette
01:58up and sees what's there and he'll have to make do with the corner.
02:05Lacazette needed to open a rich vein of scoring that he discovered at this point last season
02:11when OL were coming. Quentin Tolisso missed last week's game, his last game was against
02:16Feni Olnoy, a nice way to come back and score his second goal of the season. Five goals,
02:24two assists in 15 matches compared to six goals, no assists in 13. Last time around before he went
02:30on a goal scoring spree, corner comes in from Scherke and it's over the top there from Corentin
02:36Tolisso. First made his appearance on the OL bench in the top flight in December 2023.
02:46That's the most in that total in Liga, good ball forward, Mardy Kamara with the backheel
02:53and Ludovic Kajok doubles the lead coming up to 25 minutes.
02:58Brest top scorer with his fifth strike of the campaign.
03:06Well again it was hesitant in midfield from Leon, nice little ball through to
03:14Dumbia then the backheel from Kamara who scored the first goal, he assists the second
03:20as Ludovic Kajok
03:24finishes off with a brilliant hit.
03:40And Kajok scores his first goal since the beginning of December
03:45and it's 2-0 to Brest and Eric Hoare will be delighted.
03:49Scherke gets them out of trouble, finds the American testament.
03:55Good ball and through and Lacazette, Lacazette with a chance, great save Biso.
04:03Well at last though, Leon starting to attack, getting something together,
04:08lovely little backheel, Lacazette did it. In pain every time he passes the ball,
04:12that's a nice one too though and Malek Fafana has got away from Keddy,
04:16Lala great ball in, oh right on half time, Jordan Beretou.
04:25Fantastic, it was half time.
04:31Lovely play on this near side, Fafana linking up with Corentin Tolisso,
04:35he finally gets away from Lala and it's the pinpoint ball that they've been looking for
04:40in this first half and right on the break Leon pull it back to 2-1.
04:50Something to think about for Brest when they're eating their oranges in the changing room.
04:55Oh he's gone in and it's 2-2, Corentin Tolisso but no, up on the far side.
05:18Well he was right in line, good decision from
05:26Halftime at the Estad Francis Leblanc, Pierre Sarge's side are behind but they're not out,
05:31they've come back into it. Down but not out and we'll warn you at the beginning of the game,
05:37beginning of the show, it will be a great game, it is a great game after 45 minutes of play,
05:42Brest wins it 2-1 with Leon that was coming back before there was a short break.
05:47Second half starts, Brest kick off, they're only one goal in front now,
05:58two goals to one after Leon pulled one back right almost on the halftime whistle,
06:04set up a wonderful second half of football for us.
06:07Magneti to Balde running up against his former teammate Balde into the box, Balde still going
06:15and he forces the first corner after less than 30 seconds, thanks to the tackle by Dj Seleta-Sar.
06:29Ball forward, is he on site? Balde!
06:32He's offside, so then let's take a look at this, yeah he's gone just a little bit too early,
06:38Dumbia with the ball over the top, it was well executed from Dumbia but Balde just went a half
06:46second too early and so he does not get to half celebrate a goal against his former side.
06:51Game that was foreseen, seen in the middle by Benoit Bastiaan.
06:55Balde just went a half second too early
06:58and so he does not get to half celebrate a goal against his former side.
07:02Off in the fifth minute of that game.
07:09Game that was foreseen, seen in the middle by Benoit Bastiaan.
07:26Nothing forthcoming, Mata runs away from Mama Balde and then turns in beautifully,
07:35however now there's a press player down, another
07:38off the ball incident this time, Tessman does get a yellow card.
07:46For Lyon, just striking out they're getting.
07:56Mardy Kamra has got away from Tessman, Kamra still going, Kamra!
08:01And it's wide I think from a touch by Ajourk.
08:04Well Ajourk started it, Dumbia has been involved in all of those good balls coming forward in
08:10this game, through to Kamra, Kamra didn't seem to really know what he was doing and it was Clinton
08:14Mata I think in the end who got the final touch and it's a corner to Brest but it could have been
08:20so much more.
08:26Back out to the Frenchman, Pavane, immediately tackled but it's cut back for Tessman
08:35and he can't find the target.
08:38Well it wasn't the smoothest of setups but it found its way through to the American,
08:44just couldn't quite find the right composure for the shot.
08:47Switching play, transition football, Schurke, good ball in and Lacazette would you believe it,
08:55hits it straight at the goalkeeper. This was the ball in, Ryan Schurke on a plate for
09:01Alexander Lacazette but the captain fluffs his lines and Bezo makes the save.
09:10Brest stay 2-1 in front with 20 minutes to go.
09:16As Kamori Dumbia will take as usual.
09:30Dumbia strikes, oh that was close and it's in by,
09:35blowing out their cheeks collectively off the post to start with.
09:40Amavi again finds Kamora, former Saint Etienne man, no way through, squeeze that through a tight
09:45gap, Del Castillo into the box. Marty Kamora is down, one of the contenders you would say is for
09:52man of the match. Mikitadze, little dink ball into the middle, well intercepted though by Chardonnay.
10:01Back out again and Marty Kamora has got there, ahead of Clinton Mata and he really
10:07comes cramping legs and everything and he's flattened by Salaita Saar who is booked.
10:13Central defender and a nice body check.
10:25Oh there's actually an elbow.
10:26And the substitute.
10:38Numar's underneath this, away by Magnetti and the whistle goes and Brest win.
10:47Great win by Brest holding on till the end, it can still be
10:52upended by Hems and Strasburg who have yet to play in this matchday. Nice can overtake
10:58Lyon for fifth if they win their game today. 2-1 Brest-Winston versus Lyon.
