Rennes provides the essentials against Mura (1-0) and retains the head of its group

Twenty-five shots, six on target. In view of the numbers, Rennes has shown its domination but also showed shortcomings in quickly finding the opening. From the start of the game, however, Bruno Génésio’s men put strong pressure on the Slovenian goal thanks to a Terrier – Guirassy attacking duo very mobile in attack. Very quickly, the Rennais obtained several corners and on one of them, Badé thought of opening the scoring but Matko Obradovic started his festival with a beautiful parade on his line (8th). The Croatian goalkeeper was the great guy of this first period thanks to stops in front of Terrier (20th), Baptiste Santamaria (38th) or Serhou Guirassy (45th).

Badé freed Roazhon Park

Sovereign in the game but not realistic enough to convert their scoring chances, Rennes continued to push like Santamaria with his foot (53rd) or Guirassy with his head (64th) but each time, Obradovic was on the path. .

From then on, Génésio decided to bring in his handyman, Gaëtan Laborde, but also his two young shoots, Mathys Tel and Matthis Abline. And it was just after these new entries that Rennes found the loophole in a free kick hit by Lovro Majer and headed by Badé (76th, 1-0). With a little more control, Kamaldeen Sulemana could have ensured a less stressful end to the match in Rennes, but his shot went largely above (82nd). No big deal: the victory of December 12, 2019 against Lazio Rome is no longer Rennes’ last home victory in Europe. It was time.
