A crowd of 21337 were inside the Matmut Atlantique stadium on Thursday evening for the Europa League Q3, 1st leg game. The away sector inclluded an enthusiastic group of travelling supporters who made the trip to France to back their side.

Manager Marko Nikolic did not change his side from the one that beat Puskas Academy away at the weekend. That meant that Vidi lined up as follows: Kovácsik – Nego, Juhász, Fejes, Stopira – Suljic, Varga, Pátkai, Hadzic – Scsepovics, Lazovics.

The first bit of action arrived on 6 minutes when home keeper Costilnak had to save well to deny a Scepovic shot from a tight angle. The rebound fell to Patkai, but the keeper made an easier save. The 9th minute saw Bordeaux’s highest value player, Malcom try from 17 meters to the far corner, but it did not go in. Vidi were playing in their impressive new sand colour kit. Malcom had another shot a minute later, which Vidi keeper Kovacsik got down well to keep out. Videoton were forced into a change after 16 minutes when Varga jumped and landed badly and the midfielder had to come off after receiving treatment.

Girondins went ahead 7 minutes later following a cross from the right, which Sankhare headed into the corner. Kovacsik had no chance of keeping out that header (1-0). The action continued inside the modern stadium. A corner after 20 minutes was headed at goal by Gaetan, which was cleared by Nego, who was positioned next to the post. Vidi were back in the game and levelled after 23 minutes. Suljic sent a ball into the middle and Scepovic arrived in between two defenders to calmly find the back of the net (1-1).
