We can say that it starts strong! The Ligue 1 season was launched Friday evening by the beautiful poster between Stade Rennais and Olympique de Marseille.
Very ambitious this season, the Phocaeans fell from above, by driving throughout the meeting on a Breton team, however quickly reduced to ten. Worse, the men of Roberto de Zerbi were surprised at the end of the meeting by an opening of Quentin Merlin, their former left side, who sent Ludovic Blas to register the goal of victory.
Funny welcome for Valentin Rongier…
The evening therefore ended with a clapping at Roazhon Park, in which another former Marseillais participated, Valentin Rongier. The native of Mâcon is above all a former Nantes, trained among the Canaries, the rival club of which he was the captain, a period when he regularly allowed himself to scratch the Rennes rival.
Rongier, the response to supporters
So here he is red and black player … and even captain. But the Kop Rennais gave him a hostile reception, with this spicy banner: ” Rush (expression): Throwing his honor at the gutter, losing all credibility and respect for his own person. »»
“To be honest, I expected a little bit, replied the player in the mixed zone.It's their choice, I can understand their frustration. But I have already said it, I repeat, I am here to give everything. They will realize it as and when. I am not paying attention to that, the most important thing is that I will give everything on the ground for the Stade Rennais. »»
He did it during this meeting, and rather well. The team assigned him the note of 7/10 (“He was expected, he replied. Like a captain, like a leader. »»), just like Ouest-France (“He helped keep the Rennes block, and, like many of his teammates, has finished strong. »»). Rongier in the text.
