Bourigeaud's rage after one of his three failed actions.

  • Stade Rennais, which remained on four victories before the truce, was held in check (0-0) in Nantes on Wednesday night.

  • The Rennais, fourth in L1, had 72% of the time the ball, but yet created few clear chances.

  • Julien Stephan, the Breton coach, did not hang around in the press room and confided his frustration.

A little over four minutes.

This is the time that Julien Stephan remained in front of journalists after the draw (0-0) of his training in Nantes on Wednesday evening.

Short answers.

Often similar.

To point out the same evils on this Breton derby: "the lack of accuracy, efficiency, depth" of his team.

“We came to take more points than that.

We didn't seize our opportunities at the start of the second half, it's the turning point of the match.

"

This fateful moment occurred between the 49th and the 53rd.

During these four minutes, Bourigeaud had three opportunities between his feet to again tip the derby in favor of Rennes.

In the 49th, on a cross from Truffert, he first missed his recovery.

A minute later, Pallois countered him at the last minute when he was in a good position.

And in the 53rd, his curled shot licked Lafont's bar.

Before and after these four minutes of the second half, Stade Rennais turned the ball around (72% possession), without always knowing what to do with it.

“When we have so much the ball in the feet, we have to create more opportunities, plague Stephan, who had decided to leave Camavinga and Niang on the bench at kick-off and to start Hunou in front and Salin in the cage.

You need more presence in the box, especially when you face an opponent who defends very low.

"

Grenier's mood gesture

Offensively, Rennes (4th in Ligue 1 after this day) struggled.

The formation of Julien Stephan did not frame any strike while he compiled 26 centers.

Three balls were touched by the Bretons in the Nantes penalty area.

That says a lot about the cutesy performance of Terrier, Hunou and perhaps to a lesser extent - as he seems capable of making the difference on acceleration - the Belgian Doku.

“Our lack of accuracy will be a problem in our second part of the season,” Judge Stephan.

"It's still a game of recovery, we will increase in power," relativizes the central defender Nayef Aguerd.

A meeting during which Grenier, rather to his advantage in the middle of the field, stood out when he was replaced by Camavinga in the 74th by kicking a bottle… "He's a competitor", defused Julien Stephan.

His shortest response from the press conference.
