Unbeaten for 11 matches in all competitions and authors of five victories and two draws in their last seven L1 games, Rennes temporarily take 2nd place in the standings. But if the Breton series has something to impress, it is the game proposed by Martin Terrier’s teammates which bluffers. “After the match against Lyon, it’s a confirmation, it shows that the team is maturing and that it is capable of doing great things “, greets Bruno Genesio.” We are in the process of creating something“, appreciates Flavien Tait at the microphone of Canal +.

We play for each other

From the start, the Bretons offered quality content. With a desire to project forward. Top pressing at all times. And above all, an irreproachable state of mind. Commendable even. “He there is an osmosis in this team. We play for each other. We move for each other. We try to offer beautiful things“Tait salivates again. The two goals go in this direction, in particular the second which is a collective masterpiece with to conclude a beautiful delivery of an altruistic Gaëtan Laborde for a Lovro Majer who does not cease to seduce.
The only downside of the evening? Authors of a first period with “a lot of technical intensity and movement“According to Bruno Genesio, the Bretons were unable to take advantage of their numerical superiority to drive the point home following the expulsion of Téji Savanier (41st).”There is still room for improvement. Especially in the offensive game. We must do better on certain sequences“, remarks Bruno Genesio at the microphone of Canal + before putting a layer in press conference:”I would have liked us to be more killers, more fair. Great teams are those that leave nothing to the opponent. In the last two matches, we shoot more than 50 times and we score six goals. We must be more efficient, more aggressive in front of the drunkt”.
We didn’t become world champions tonight

This requirement also illustrates Rennes’ new ambitions. So much so that the sluggish start to the season, marked in particular by three straight setbacks in L1, seems a long way off. “We questioned ourselves a lot. The additions of Gaëtan (editor’s note: Laborde), Baptiste (editor’s note: Santamaria) and Lovro (editor’s note: Majer) who arrived later strengthened this group. So it’s a set of things“, appreciates the former technician of Lyon, who can rely on a group denser than expected.
On Saturday, the nugget Kamaldeen Sulemana, the young defender Warmed Omari or Santamaria were thus suspended. But Stade Rennais has again demonstrated the strength of its collective. What to think that this beautiful series can last. “Football is a constant questioning. We were no less than nothing after the match against Marseille. And we did not become world champions tonight. We must continue like this to meet our goals“, warns Genesio, however, aware that his team can not relax when it has a marathon to do before the holidays (9 matches in 33 days). But that’s good, his group seems on the same wavelength . “We know our quality. But the state of mind will do a lot of things, ”Tait concludes.
