00:00Having qualified for the French Cup final,
00:03Reims are hoping to pull away from the relegation zone.
00:06Today, Strasbourg are on the hunt for a European place,
00:11targeting a fifth successive win in the league.
00:18And it is Strasbourg who are right into their work straight away.
00:21Some dynamic young players, a really exciting team to watch this season.
00:36We have some players to call on again.
00:40On the bench.
00:43They force the corner.
00:46Nanassi with the corner. It's a good one.
00:53And Strasbourg are in front.
00:56Three and a half minutes gone.
01:00And their brilliant form is continuing.
01:03Ismael Ducoury has put the ball in the net.
01:11Starting this game with confidence.
01:14And they get a goal. An easy one at that.
01:17Question marks about the defending, but a tidy finish.
01:20He drifted in nicely there, did Ducoury.
01:23And it's Reims 0, Strasbourg 1.
01:34Well, that's good play from La Maréchal Barco.
01:38Thought about the shot here.
01:41Still thinking about it maybe. The cross comes in instead.
01:44And it was Sebastien Nanassi.
01:47Barco has made a really good start to this game.
01:50Picked out his man in the area.
01:53Another good chance for Strasbourg.
02:05That's a lovely ball through. A chance of an equaliser.
02:09The shot in the end.
02:12From Sergio Akemi.
02:15What a pass through that was for Akemi.
02:18Good burst of pace.
02:21He couldn't beat Petrovic.
02:28Was there a hand use there? Doesn't matter.
02:31Because
02:34Ito found the net.
02:37I think the referee is
02:40considering ruling this one out for handball.
02:43Ito did well.
02:46And his finish was high to the roof of the net
02:49from Akemi's cross.
02:52They both handled it.
02:55First Sarr of Strasbourg.
02:58And then Ito.
03:01That was a really good finish on the half.
03:04We will wait for word
03:07from Mathieu Vernisse.
03:24He is ruled out.
03:27Backwards delivery.
03:34Swings it over again.
03:37And it's wide at the back post.
03:40Great chance that.
03:43For Andre Santos.
03:46He crept round the back.
03:49Missed the target in the end.
03:52That's a real let off for us.
03:55Valentin Matsangana
03:58getting his first goal in the second half
04:01for 3-0.
04:04Good play from Nakamura.
04:07Easy to
04:10Nakamura getting away from
04:13Lemar Echal.
04:16His 10th goal of the campaign here.
04:23It's going to be another hold up here.
04:26The referee was playing advantage.
04:29After this challenge
04:32it was Rafis Ibrahim
04:35who has got himself
04:38a yellow card here.
04:41That will be halftime.
04:44Strasbourg striking early.
04:47The first goal of the season from Ismael Dekore.
04:50Plenty of freedom in the penalty box.
04:53To get the visitors in front after 4 minutes.
04:56A bit of pressure now.
04:59Trailing by one goal to nil.
05:02At halftime.
05:05All to do in the second half.
05:08Trailing by a goal to nil.
05:11Strasbourg
05:14closing in on another big victory.
05:17Back to his keeper.
05:20A little risky there.
05:27Strasbourg
05:30in the second half.
05:33It's Ross on the attack.
05:36The shot is a good one.
05:39Amadou Kourne with it.
05:42Arrowing towards the corner.
05:45Kourne
05:48only 21.
05:51Strasbourg on the back foot now.
05:55That's not the best of clearances.
05:58It's a brilliant save from Djordje Petrovic.
06:01The equaliser here.
06:04The ball dropping
06:07right to the 9 goal top scorer
06:10Feras Petrovic.
06:17Lots of space here.
06:20A chance for Strasbourg.
06:23And they almost took it.
06:26That smacked off the post.
06:29That was the ball over the top.
06:32Plenty of time and space.
06:35Great ball across in the end.
06:38Omega was trying to stay on side.
06:41Finding him at the back post.
06:44Omega hit the post.
06:47Almost got his 13th league goal of the season.
06:54It's a decent corner.
06:57The header on target.
07:00But grabbed by Evan Diouf.
07:03He would have had a few anxious moments there.
07:09Diakon.
07:12He's done really well here.
07:15And it's hacked away.
07:24Now a chance for Arras.
07:27John Patrick goes down.
07:30He gets his free kick.
07:38He was looking right at the man.
07:44There's a real flashpoint now.
07:47Several players involved.
07:54The emotion is running high.
07:57It's Barco who's down.
08:00One or two trying to act as a peacemaker there.
08:08Nito thinks of what could have been for his side.
08:11There's a red card.
08:18And it's gone to Mourit Gouban.
08:22It's going to be a costly defeat in more ways than one.
08:25For Arras.
08:28If they don't get an equalizer.
08:33There's a yellow for Ito as well.
08:36And Ito shoving Barco.
08:39He's got the ball.
08:42He's got the ball.
08:45He's got the ball.
08:49Ito shoving Barco who held his face.
08:52He was certainly shoved in the chest.
09:03Still discussing things with the two captains.
09:06Tiara who took the captain's armband.
09:09Having come on for Strasbourg.
09:19Juffa listening intently as well.
09:33So we continue with a goal kick.
09:36It looks like Moreira.
09:39Has he been red carded as well?
09:42Maybe he's just gone off.
09:46He has gone red.
09:57That is full time.
10:00Strasbourg have done it again.
10:03Five wins in a row.
10:06Four away wins in a row.
10:09Eight matches unbeaten in Ligue 1.
10:12One to the top five.
10:15Arras suffer a damaging defeat.
10:18Strasbourg won the final score.
10:27They had to work very hard for that one in the end.
