Match Report

A pulsating 4-4 draw at Stade Océane on Ligue 1 matchday 31 showed Metz at their most stubborn. Gauthier Hein's composed finish in the 85th minute rescued a point for the visitors — their fourth equaliser of a remarkable afternoon. Mbwana Samatta (5') and Yassine Kechta (13') gave Le Havre the initiative, only for Giorgi Kvilitaia (9') and a Hein penalty (45+5') to level each time. Two more lead changes followed: Yanis Zouaoui converted a penalty (50') before 18-year-old Jahyann Pandore equalised (54'), then Fodé Doucouré edged Le Havre back in front (61') — but Hein had the last say. Le Havre scored four home league goals for the first time since February 1998, yet left the field empty-handed. Metz, still rooted in 18th place, delayed their relegation fate by a week — but need results to turn dramatically in their favour.
