Without being flashy, Rennes provides the essentials and takes the three points in Le Havre
This Sunday afternoon, Stade Rennais won 1-0 at the Océane stadium thanks to a goal from Benjamin Bourigeaud on the hour mark. After conceding the draw in August, the Bretons did better and continued their beautiful dynamic.
Opposite, Le Havre did what they know how to do best since the start of the season: namely to defend well and hope to surprise in transition. Today, it didn’t work, the fault of realistic Rennes who have gained in serenity in recent weeks.
Julien Stéphan’s men had just one big highlight during the match and they exploited it wonderfully. On the hour mark, while Rennes were playing high to attempt placed attacks, Adrien Truffert crossed from the left and the ball finally fell on the head of Martin Terrier after a second ball. The Breton striker deflects into the area towards Bourigeaud who takes the space perfectly. In the process, his shot deceives Arthur Desmas who cannot really do more (60ᵉ).
Rennes in progress
Yes, the SRFC suffered again this Sunday, but it did not bend under the pressure put on by Le Havre during the last twenty minutes. In line with recent results, Stéphan’s collective is progressing in its ability to obtain the desired points.
It is not for nothing that Rennes temporarily climbs to 7th place in Ligue 1. It is the 5th consecutive victory in the championship, the 8th in all competitions, enough to approach the rest with confidence.
Conversely, Luka Elsner’s players will be able to harbor regrets, because they gave themselves the means to score. However, they lacked realism when it came to the goal and today it didn’t pay off. From an accounting standpoint, it’s not particularly dramatic, especially since their opponent is in great shape.
Second setback in a row for the Normans, we will have to raise our heads next weekend, but the trip to Lille risks being perilous.
