Updated:2025-10-28 08:32 Views:108On Sunday evening, Rennes secured their first win in the Ligue 1 season with a narrow victory over Brest. The match was decided by a scored penalty and a clean sheet for the hosts.
The game started off evenly, with both teams creating chances but failing to convert them into goals. However, it was Rennes who took the lead in the 42nd minute through a well-taken goal from midfielder Yann M'Vila. The Frenchman picked up a pass from Moussa Diaby and slotted the ball past Brest goalkeeper Christophe Galtier.
Despite the lead, Rennes struggled to create any more opportunities as they were unable to find the back of the net. This left the home side needing a late equalizer to secure all three points. And just when it looked like the game might end in a draw, Rennes found themselves on top thanks to a controversial penalty awarded against Brest in the 90th minute.
Referee Jean-François Tourret判给了主队点球,因为Brest的球员在禁区内手球。然而,由于VAR(视频助理裁判)的帮助,这个决定被改判为犯规。不过,这并没有改变结果,因为主队的罚球手M'Vila冷静地将球打入球门左下角。
最终,Rennes held on to win the match 1-0, securing their first point of the season. The narrow victory was achieved despite the fact that Rennes had a number of key players missing due to injury or suspension. It was also a testament to the quality of the team's defense, which managed to keep Brest at bay without conceding a single goal.
Overall, this was a crucial win for Rennes, who now sit in fourth place in the table after a strong start to the season. With the pressure mounting on the rest of the teams in the league, Rennes will be hoping to continue their momentum and build on their early success.
