OL won in Rennes as part of the 12th day of Ligue 1 this Sunday. A first victory this season for Les Gones.
Regardless of the way, in OL’s situation, only the three points will be worth remembering. This Sunday at Roazhon Park, the Lyonnais signed their first success of the season – after 11 outings – defeating Stade Rennais by the narrowest of margins and after having played in numerical superiority throughout the match.
From the 5e minute, Guéla Doué actually saw red for a bad sole. An event which obviously reversed the balance of power in Brittany and gave additional confidence to the Rhone residents. Certainly sluggish in the game and in the offensive animation – with Lacazette confined to the bench during the first act – the Lyonnais relied on their Irish defender O’Brien to make the difference (0-1, 67e).
“This victory will do us good”
Scalded by the scenario of the match – like Genesio who lost his nerve at half-time – the nervous Rennais were unable to return to the game, weighed down by a fourth setback in five days and pushed back to 13e elite rank, only one step ahead of the red zone.

With now seven units on the clock, OL for their part remain bottom but five points from the waterline. “ We had had no luck until now, we had to wait until November to have some luck. This victory will do us goodsays Caqueret, hotly, on Canal+. We hope that this will launch our season and that we will continue. It’s always good to win before an international break. » At the start, the menu promises to be plentiful, however, for Les Gones who will host Lille before traveling to Lens and Marseille.
