They believed in it until the end, before seeing all their hopes crumble on a goal from Kylian Mbappé (93rd). Stade Rennais will have hooked Paris Saint-Germain at the Parc des Princes but returned empty-handed to Brittany, for this 24th day of Ligue 1.
The very first minutes of the match, however, left hope for the Red and Black. From the 3rd minute with a three against two for the Rennais, badly negotiated. And even more on a recovery from Benjamin Bourigeaud (6th) which forces Keylor Navas to get the ball out with his fingertips.
Masterful Omari
But Paris Saint-Germain will regain control of the game and possession. Without creating opportunities as frank as the Rennais. Partly thanks to Warmed Omari’s performance. For his twentieth match in Ligue 1, the Franco-Comorian central defender will have provided a masterful performance against Kylian Mbappé. His precise intervention against the French international avoids the opening of the score (40th).
The start of the second half seems much more balanced. But the Rennais, not efficient enough, did not manage to open the scoring despite the opportunities. The Rennais will have almost as many shots on goal as the Parisians, but with a single shot on target it was too complicated to make the difference.
And the Rennais will be punished in the very last moments of the meeting, on a Parisian counter. Kylian Mbappé fixed Warmed Omari, shot low and Dogan Alemdar could not get the ball out, which he touched with his fingertips (93rd).
