St Etienne 3 - OM 0
27th: Kvarme goes right by Dos Santos on the right side with a good give and go from Pedron and gets the ball to Sarr, who scores from 6 meters.
70th: Alex passes to Mettomo on the right side of the box. Mettomo passes it back in the midde: Trévisan can oly push the ball in Alex's feet, and the brasilian shots. It's stopped by Trévisan, but the ball rolls toward the line and Alex can put it easily in the back of the net.
72nd: Aloisio looks for Alex deep: N'Gotty misses his clearance, and Alex can dribble (brasilian way) Trévisan in the box and score.

Players of the game: No OM player really had a great game. Ingesson did not have the same impact he had against Troyes, while Adriano seemed well inspired but did not touch the ball enough, and Leroy had good and bad periods. Alex, Aloisio and Guel, on the other hand, were impressive.
