00:00Off we go then, the season starts, and Toulouse in their usual violet kit, kicking from left to right in this first half, and the Canaries as usual as well in their all yellow.
00:19Looking to get off to a slightly better start, they haven't won for the last seven years on the opening day, having won three times on match day one before that.
00:29It really doesn't make an awful lot of difference though to them. As we said pre-game, it has little or no effect on what will happen to them in the rest of the season, and that is all part of the fun of being a fan of Nantes, you never quite know what you're going to get.
00:44He didn't really agree with the fact that he couldn't get the signings he wanted. Here they come though, Toulouse on the attack, ball in from Comanze, back post all the way through, everybody misses it.
00:55Kept in by Dunham, it is brilliant play by the buying outright, Thomas is going to take the corner kick, bends it in and it's hit by Rest, and out it goes.
01:12Simon Noah has managed to get there ahead of Comanze, Carles Martinez-Novell screaming down there with that thick Spanish accent, getting his team to do what he wants.
01:24This is better, maybe this is, but doing what they want. Chance here for Toulouse, great ball in.
01:30In the recent Olympic Games, in track and field. Here they come, Toulouse on the attack, better ball in, real chance, first major chance, and it's saved.
01:48Zakaria Abouclal, finally they manage to open up the non-defence, much better work this.
01:57Not the greatest of defending, but Zakaria Abouclal there, he got it on target, he'll be.
02:06Corner kick to Toulouse, good ball in, another save from Laforme, but the referee has blown the whistle already.
02:21Two good deliveries, over the top from Schmitt, in fact over the top from Magri.
02:28In it comes, another dangerous ball, it's popping up anywhere in the middle, it's punched out by Laforme, still not away.
02:34Could be a chance, Laforme with another great save, in by Schmitt, and wide.
02:41In this latter part of the first half, another great delivery, some brilliant set-piece taken by Schmitt.
02:48Again indecisive from the defenders of Norms, but their goalkeeper has been getting them out of trouble two or three times now.
03:01Going through his own man Zezay there, but with the men on the deck it cleared the way for him to see the ball coming in.
03:11And the referee blows the whistle at the end of the first 45 minutes here.
03:18So we don't have goals, ladies and gentlemen, in the first 45 minutes, Toulouse is having a draw with Nantes.
03:27No goals, but I'm sure that the best is yet to come, so don't go anywhere, you're watching Beansports.
03:340-0 at halftime, the second half kicks off.
03:37Toulouse, who lamented the good form being shown on matchday one by Alban Laforme,
03:43the Nantes goal will be looking to get a little bit further either side of him in this second half.
03:50So far Frank Magritte has had one-headed shot from a corner kick.
03:56He combined what was good about the old style stadium with the new style.
04:01So Frank Magritte has had a one-headed shot from a corner kick.
04:06So far Frank Magri has had one headed shot from a corner kick and he combined what was
04:17good about the old style stadium with what is good about the new.
04:20Here's Moses Simon trying to get the ball across and does and how that has been kept
04:26out I'm not sure.
04:27Schmidt has raced across and will take this one the outswinger with the right foot this
04:36time.
04:38Good ball in, oh it's wide and it's Cresswell who ghosted in looking for a goal on his debut
04:52but.
04:53Travella to Coco, Coco gets it under control and delivers a really good ball into the middle.
05:01Still not away, Moses Simon shoots, it's deflected off the back of a defender and out for a.
05:09It's a really good ball Logan Costa with the initial header Moses Simon comes back in again
05:14and Cresswell heads it over the top of the bar.
05:28Thomas with the corner another good delivery oh and it's off the line by Guillaume Rest
05:36reaction saves from the Toulouse shot stopper.
05:40It was a good corner kick, I'm not quite sure who got the header in the end.
05:50Well Castelletto off of maybe Douglas Augusto.
05:57Toulouse though handed the opportunity as Suarez and Suazo and Sierra hover over the
06:07possibilities.
06:14Suazo again back post Cresswell.
06:20They're scampering forward Abouklaou wants it and gets it still going Abouklaou denied
06:29by another good save.
06:31Real determination this from the Moroccan to get past the defender stayed on his feet
06:36but so too did Laforne long enough to stop him scoring what would surely have been the
06:41winner.
06:46Good play all round although Suazo has done it more often it looks like it's going to
06:52be the other way around it's the Toulouse captain that bends it in back post big chance
06:57and it's over the bar Magri finally gets his chance in front of goal and can't keep
07:03it down looking to make up for the loss of Thijs Dalinger in the transfer window.
07:11Already well on the clock Le Penon with the corner kick it's a decent ball out by Cresswell
07:18and it should be simple for rest and is to Sierro and to space for the captain to line
07:28up a long diagonal ball to the other side that will get there after a mistake by Chiravella.
07:37Is there a goal at the end of this game for one of these two sides Albon Laforme back
07:42to his Zakaria Aboukhal cutting back inside and looking for the spectacular but if not
07:51do get a point out of this a lot of it will be and there's something can happen here as
07:55Guillaume Rest launches it forward down that right hand side it's kept in Cresswell Cresswell
08:03back in for Le Penon and it's wide from Gobbo oh the chance came right at the end of the game
08:11it would have been a beautiful goal here with the back heel from the 23 year old man from Ivory
08:21Coast little cheeky back heel but just refused to go to the right side of the post and that's it
08:34is the last chance and it will end goalless here after 90 minutes of nice attractive play from both
08:41sides but so this is the end of the match Neil Neil Toulouse and Nantes with a draw in their
08:52first match of this season of this campaign no goals but actually it was an attractive game
