Match Report

Auxerre claimed a comfortable 3–1 home victory over Angers in Ligue 1's 32nd round, despite spending much of the match with less of the ball. Sékou Mara opened the scoring early, heading Auxerre into a 1–0 lead at the break, before a dramatic start to the second half reshaped the contest. Angers midfielder Amine Sbai was dismissed just before half-time after collecting two yellow cards in quick succession, leaving the visitors to play the entire second period with ten men.

Auxerre capitalised swiftly after the interval. A VAR-confirmed penalty was awarded shortly after the restart, and Mara doubled his tally on 61 minutes before Lassine Sinayoko added a third just moments later to put the result beyond doubt. Angers pulled one back through a VAR-confirmed penalty converted by Goduine Koyalipou on 77 minutes, but it proved little more than a consolation.

Despite being outshot 19–9 and holding just 44% possession, Auxerre's clinical finishing proved decisive — a result that our pre-match AI model had rated the most likely outcome at 41%.
