Benjamin Bourigeaud did not mince his words after the incredible defeat of his team, Stade Rennais, this Sunday against Brest.
The meeting between Stade Rennais and Brest, counting for the 31st day of Ligue 1, will undoubtedly remain one of the most thrilling of the season. This Breton derby delivered a totally improbable scenario, culminating in a Breton victory in the 97th minute of play.
At the end of the meeting, Julien Stéphan’s men were completely stunned. “We come away disgusted, reacted Benjamin Bourigeaud at the microphone of Canal+. It is unacceptable to concede 5 goals at home. If you have to score 6 goals to win… There are no words, we did too much stupidity today. I’m not going to mince words, we’re just idiots. »
Of the “crippling shortcomings”
In a post-match press conference, Julien Stéphan admitted that his team will probably not be able to aim higher than seventh place at the end of the season. This could prove to qualify for the Europa Conference League in the event of PSG’s victory in the final of the Coupe de France.
The Stade Rennais coach even mentioned “crippling shortcomings” regarding his team. After this setback, the club founded in 1901 is in eighth place in Ligue 1. For the moment, it is Olympique Lyonnais which provisionally occupies this seventh position.
