Barely revived by a narrow victory over Le Havre last week (1-0), Stade Rennais is once again plunged into doubt. This Sunday at Abbé-Deschamps, the Rouges et Noirs suffered their fifth setback of the season. In just 10 days of the championship.
It was with a clear score of 4-0 that the Auxerres made the difference, with a double from Perrin (27e39e), a penalty converted by Sinayoko – a penalty kick obtained on an action which had seen the Rennais reduce the gap by Kalimuendo (64e) – and a final goal scored in added time by Onaiwu.
Stéphan in danger, Montpellier moribund
The AJA confirms its state of grace at home (four victories in five receptions), and is in 10e position, two units from the first European level. Obviously, the result is cataclysmic on the other hand for the Bretons, and could not be without consequences for coach Julien Stéphan while Rennes, 13eis barely one point ahead of the red zone this evening.
The HAC, defeated at the same time by Montpellier thanks to a penalty from Touré (1-0, 73e), is only two lengths behind Stade Rennais despite its worrying 17e place. The situation is even more alarming for the MHSC, dead last in L1 with four small points on the clock and a fifth consecutive defeat suffered this Sunday.
