The match between SM Caen and Grenoble Foot 38 in Ligue 2 ended with a narrow 1-0 victory for the visitors. Despite having a relatively balanced match in terms of corner kicks, with SM Caen having a slight edge of 8 to Grenoble's 7, it was Grenoble who capitalized early with a goal at 00:45:58. This early breakthrough established the tempo for the match, forcing SM Caen to play catch-up for the majority of the game.

Statistically, both teams were disciplined in maintaining their defensive lines, as evidenced by the offside statistics. SM Caen did particularly well to avoid the linesman's flag, registering no offsides compared to Grenoble's three. However, Caen's inability to convert their corner kicks into meaningful threats highlighted a lack of precision in their attacking set-pieces, which contributed significantly to their failure to break through Grenoble's defenses.

Disciplinary issues heavily influenced the match's dynamics, with both teams receiving three yellow cards each. However, the critical factor was the red cards that affected SM Caen significantly more. The home side had two players sent off, severely hampering their ability to chase the game effectively in the latter stages. Grenoble also received a red card, but with SM Caen facing a greater numerical disadvantage, it was difficult for them to mount a successful comeback, which was a decisive factor in Grenoble’s victory.
