Round of 16: Rennes – Marseille summary
… – (France TV)
Trailing, the Breton club punched its ticket for the round of 16 on Sunday after a long session (1-1, 9-8 tab).
At the end of the suspense. At the end of a tense penalty shootout, Stade Rennes eliminated Olympique de Marseille (1-1, 9-8 tab), Sunday January 21, to reach the round of 16 of the Coupe de France. A year after losing to the Phocaeans at the same stage of the competition, the Bretons take their revenge.
However, it was OM who took the advantage with a winning volley from Jordan Veretout (29th). But that was without counting on Martin Terrier, who arrived at the right time to head a very off-center free kick and put the two teams back on an equal footing (53rd).
Confident in the exercise after taking a penalty against Benjamin Bourigeaud just before the break (45th + 3), Pau Lopez was then not decisive during the penalty shootout and it was ultimately after a miss from Samuel Gigot , which Mahamadou Nagida described as Rennais. In the next round, they will travel to Sochaux (N1), winners of Lorient and Reims in the last two rounds.
