    • 90+3' Ibrahimovic penalised for a raised boot in the box.
    • 90+2' Time nearly up. Ibrahimovic flicks it on to Lavezzi but it’s a great challenge from Poujol.
    • 90+1' Another chance for Sochaux but the shot is dragged just wide by Privat.
    • 90' There will be three added minutes.
    • 89' Ibrahimovic has talked himself into a yellow card. Time running out for PSG.
    • 88' Boudebouz has also come off for Traore.
    • 88' Ibrahimovic turns Kanté and claims he was pulled down in the box. Nothing given.
    • 87' Coman nearly scores with his first touch, rifling in a shot at goal.
    • 86' PSG win a corner. More danger for Sochaux. Coman on for Matuidi.
    • 85' PSG have conceded just 13 before tonight. It's the first time they have conceded three since May last year.
    • 84' You have to say Sochaux have deserved this. They’ve been the better side.
    • 83' GOAL Sochaux! Boudebouz whips in a cross for Privat who knocks it back to Bakambu to turn into an empty net! What drama!
    • 81' Privat booked for a challenge on Verratti.
    • 80' Boudebouz whips in a free kick but Sakho heads clear. Ten minutes to go plus added time.
    • 79' A point would still be a good result for Sochaux. Roussillon wins a throw down the left wing.
    • 78' Now PSG are looking for the winner. Matuidi flings himself at a cross and claims he was bundled over by Boudebouz. Nothing given.
    • 77' Again, that’s come against the run of play. Tough on Sochaux. Gameiro caught offside.
    • 76' GOAL PSG! And it came of Roussillon from Sakho’s shot. Alex headed it goalwards and Sakho hit it goalwards before it came off Roussillon.
    • 75' Gameiro wins PSG a corner. Defending for Sochaux to do.
    • 74' So Sochaux choosing to sure up the midfield. Privat immediately into the action. Nogueira handles the ball. Free kick.
    • 73' Sochaux sub: Privat on for Sio.
    • 72' POSSESSION: Sochaux 44% - 56% PSG
    • 71' Great turn and shot from Pastore dips just over the bar.
    • 70' Sochaux sub: Butin off for Bakambu.
    • 69' Searching cross by Pastore for Lavezzi but Poujol clears.
    • 68' Early to call it but this would be a huge upset. PSG have only lost three games this season.
    • 67' Ibrahimovic falls theatrically in the box but nothing given. If anything it was a foul from the Swede leaning into his man.
    • 66' Run and shot from Nogueira is just wide! Sochaux close again.
    • 65' Pastore nearly plays in Gameiro but he can’t quite connect and it’s out for a goal kick.

    • 61' PSG subs: Van der Wiel for Jallet, Chantome for Gameiro.
    • 60' Sirigu has had a bit of a shocker tonight. He should have saved that second goal.
    • 59' It’s a terrific free kick from Corchia onto the inside of the post and out! Sochaux nearly had a third!
    • 58' Sio fouled by Alex and wins a free kick 25 metres out. Another chance.
    • 56' Another good save from Pouplin. Ibrahimovic blasts a free kick into the stands. A lot of action already this half.
    • 55' Ibrahimovic is nearly in at the other end as Poujol gets his back header all wrong but Pouplin spares his blushes with a great save.
    • 54' GOAL Sochaux! And it’s a debut goal from Sio. He rifled his shot at Sirigu from the edge of the box from Roudet’s flick. An awkward bounce and it popped over Sirigu.
    • 53' Yet again Boudebouz finds the wall with the free kick. The only part of his game that has been lacking tonight.
    • 52' Another lovely flick from Boudebouz and Sakho concedes a free kick. He has been electric tonight.
    • 51' Lavezzi goes down in a heap on the edge of the box from Poujol’s challenge. Nothing given.
    • 50' Boudebouz smashes the subsequent free kick straight into the wall. Waste.
    • 49' Another great run from Boudebouz and he’s cynically tripped by Verratti. Yellow card, his ninth of the season.

    • 47' Ibrahimovic has scored in all nine of his away games but has been quiet tonight.

    • 45' We’re back underway here. Can Sochaux build on that impressive half or will PSG up the ante? All the answers will soon become apparent.
    • 45' No added time. HALF TIME: Sochaux 1-1 PSG
    • 44' Chantome overruns the ball and it’s out for a Sochaux throw.

    • 41' Lavezzi caught offside for the third time.
    • 40' Ibrahimovic with another buccaneering run but he tries to beat one man too many. He should have shot when he had the chance.
    • 39' Ibrahimovic just fails to get on the end of a cross and Pouplin grabs it.
    • 37' Roussillon pulls it across the face of goal and Sakho is required to save PSG with a great block from Roudet's shot.
    • 36' That’s Roudet’s fourth goal of the campaign and you have to say they’ve deserved it.
    • 35' GOAL Sochaux! It’s a great ball from Boudebouz to Roudet and he rifles the finish across Sirigu and into the far corner.
    • 34' A cross come shot from Chantome drifts wide of Pouplin’s goal.
    • 33' Sochaux still pressing despite the setback, looking for that equaliser.
    • 31' Cross from Corchia deflects harmlessly into the gloves of Sirigu.
    • 30' It’s that bit of class that separates the two teams and you have to say it’s come against the run of play.

    • 28' Ibrahimovic lifts it in to Chantome but his header is just wide!
    • 27' A lovely flick from Ibrahimovic plays in Lavezzi but his shot is well saved by Pouplin. Best chance of the match.
    • 26' Lavezzi very nearly plays in Ibrahimovic but it’s a great covering tackle to prevent the Swede getting his shot away.
    • 25' Another strong run from Boudebouz but Matuidi sticks to his task and wins it back.
    • 23' Another foul and another Sochaux free kick. One way traffic at the moment.
    • 22' Ancelotti looks a little concerned in the dugout. It’s not going his way so far.
    • 21' Good tackle by Poujol and it comes off Lavezzi for a goal kick. Foul be Alex and Sochaux have another attacking free kick.
    • 20' Foul by Sakho concedes a free kick. Boudebouz whips it in and Chantome looks to have handled it! Well that should have been a penalty. PSG very lucky.
    • 19' Pastore almost plays in Lavezzi but he’s flagged just offside. Better.
    • 18' Another loose pass from PSG and it’s out for a Sochaux throw. They really haven’t settled still.
    • 17' More lovely control from Boudebouz. Looks a very exciting talent.
    • 16' Pastore plays in Matuidi but his pass asks too much of Lavezzi. Goal kick.
    • 15' Sio breaks free down the left and tries to get past Van der Wiel but concedes a foul for tugging his shirt.
    • 14' Pastore in with a late challenge on Loby. Free kick but no card.
    • 13' Butin does well to win another throw on the right. Pressure still heavily on PSG.
    • 12' Sio and Boudebouz again linking well. The home side first to every loose ball.
    • 10' The opening ten minutes has been all Sochaux. PSG go up the other end and Alex has his shot blocked. Maxwell concedes a goal kick.
    • 9' Lovely skill from Boudebouz. The shot comes in from Roudet but it deflects off Boudebouz and just wide of the post. So close for Sochaux again!
    • 8' Lavezzi caught just offside from Pastore’s pass. An intelligent run from the Argentine though.
    • 7' Sochaux have only scored 22 goals this season but this has been a bright start.
    • 6' Some sloppy passing from PSG early on and the home side are pouncing on errors.
    • 5' A glorious finish from Sio on his debut and he rifles it into the top corner from Boudebouz’s pass. He is flagged just offside and it was close!
    • 4' First danger from Ibrahimovic who beats Poujol before rifling in a cross. Sochaux are grateful to clear.
    • 3' A cross catches out Sirigu and Van der Wiel is forced to block Butin’s shot. Close from Sochaux!

    • 1' Referee Lionel Jafredo blows the whistle to get us underway here. PSG setting up 4-4-2, Sochaux 4-3-2-1.
    • 19.55 Five minutes to kick off. PSG have won each of their last four away games, without conceding a goal.
    • 19.50 Should Zlatan Ibrahimovic score, it will be his 10th consecutive away game that he has found the net, as well as surpassing last year's top scorer haul set by Olivier Giroud and Nene (21).
    • 19.45 Sochaux sit in 18th place in Ligue 1, behind Evian on goals scored, having amassed 23 points so far this season. PSG, meanwhile, sit top of Ligue 1, six points clear of Olympique Lyonnais.
    • 19.40 David Beckham again watches on from the sidelines with his debut expected against Marseille next weekend. "He'll be staying here to work, he needs more training, he'll be ready next week. Not necessarily to start, but to play," said coach Carlo Ancelotti.

  1. What a geat story! FC Sochaux were founded by and still­ owned by Peugeot! They only give them a small budget to­ to work on. Everything in the town of Sochaux has a­ connection to Peugeot .Most of their fans are car­ workers, and their is a fascinating car museum near the­ football ground.

  2. Wow PSG, spend hundreds of millions on all these­ players and go 3-2 down to a team that most people out­ of France haven't even heard of.
