Terriers are involved in both Wrens goals
Martin Terrier boosted his attack down the left by penalizing Jonathan Closs. He tried a lot, sometimes in vain (30% of duels won) but did not lack initiative, such as his decisive success (21st), which opened the score for Rennes. . It is also at the root of the pass “decisive» For Truffaut, which led to a Rennes penalty (77th). He finally contributed to Rennes’ victory this Sunday.
Bourgeois at the heart of the game
Given a standing ovation in the first half, the Rains leader was everywhere this Sunday. At the heart of the Breton game, he sometimes lacked technical precision but did not forget the essential: to be decisive in the last gesture. He showed composure on a Rennes penalty at the end of the match, deceiving Pau Lopez (78th).
However, the mistake ruined his impressive match
Amin Gowri will have bad dreams. Starting with Marseille central defender, Chancel Mbemba, was more than decisive this Sunday. As well as two excellent comebacks in the second half (53rd, 57th), he was excellent in duels (8/10 won), following very little contact with Adrien Truffaut, leading to a penalty. He was also very good on restarts (61/66 successful passes). All in all a very encouraging match for the 22-year-old Frenchman.

Om physically overwhelmed
