First Half: PSG Kickoff
5th min- PSG gets a dangerous ball into the box from Rothen. Luyindula beats Taiwo in the air and heads it down towards goal. Mandanda runs across the box and makes a great reaction stop!!!
13th min- Niang splits the defense with a great through ball to Cisse. Can....he....get....to......it aww just a step to far. Landreau comes out and smothers the ball before Cisse can get a foot to it.
19th min- Foul on Marseille. Hilton fouled Rothen on the left side of the 18. Rothen to serve the ball in. Luyindula rises to it again. Oh no the ball takes a deflection off of Rodriguez head and going towards goal with Mandanda on the ground. It pings off the crossbar and Taiwo clears it from danger!!! That was close.
22nd min- Cisse takes advantage of the cleared ball and creates a counter attack by himself. He uses his speed to break away from everyone. He beats the last defender and is 1v1 with Landreau. He shoots...............Landreau makes a spectacular kick save to keep the game tied.
29th min- Taiwo gets a through ball down the left side from Cheyrou. He gets a driven cross into the box. Ben Arfa goes for the diving header. Landreau makes another great save. He is keepin PSG in this game right now everybody.
30th min- The corner comes to nothing as Cisse gets his head to it but it goes over the goal.
44th min- Frau scores a goal for PSG. Frau got the ball in the middle of the pitch and takes it to the top of the arch and gets tricky and chips Mandanda to make it 1-0 before halftime.

Halftime Report: WOW what a half. Landreau has kept PSG in the game long enough with his amazing skills between the pipes that he has let them gain the lead. Frau's goal was a blast to Marseille right before halftime. They need to come out strong in the second half if they want to win this game.
Second Half: Marseille Kickoff
60 mins- So far 15 mins have gone by in the second half and no good chances have come. Marseille better hurry up and get one back if they want to win this game.
61st min- Substitution PSG
In: M.Gallardo
V.Gragnic
Out: J. Rothen
J. Clement
That would be awful if ex Marseille player Gragnic did some damage against his old team.
70th min- Substitution Marseille. I guess they are trying to get more firepower in the game.
In: M. Moussilou
C. Jedinak
Out: M. Niang
K. Ziani
76th min- Foul by a PSG player at the top of the box. Cheyrou to step up and take the kick. He ****s the kick and misses the goal. What a costly give up.
82nd min- CISSE HAS JUST TIED IT AT 1!!! Cheyrou steals the ball at midfield from Gragnic and takes it down the left side of the field. He sees a sprinting Cisse in the middle and lays it off to him. Cisse's first shot it blocked by Ceara and bounces back to him. He makes them pay with the rebound slotting it into the net.

88th min- Cisse is on fire now. He takes on the tired PSG defence and shoots a bullet across his body. Landreau makes another great diving save to deflect it out of bounds for a corner. Rebound comes out to Cana and he takes a go at goal. Landreau saves again but this time holds on.
Fulltime: Score at fulltime is 1-1. It looks as though ex Marseille boy has cause this game to be tied at the end. He had a costly error in midfield that started the whole goal. I doubt his players will be to happy with him, especially since the goal was so late in the game.
Man of the Match: Suprise Suprise with an amazing performance in the goal Landreau gets the man of the match award.
