Rennes rises again, puts Brest to the ground

Ligue 1, Stade rennais 2 - 1 Brest. Despite the narrow score line, Stade Rennes were largely dominant, in a derby where Brest showed a rather pale figure. Their reaction during the second half wasn’t enough to prevent a very logical victory for the “Rouge et Noir”, who return to the top positions in the standings.

TITRE

The other Yoann...

When hearing the name Yoann, anyone will think of Gourcuff. But before the young man from Ploemeur, another Yoann came out of Rennes’ academy, with a golden future promised to him when he started his professional career. It is Yoann Bigné, now a player at the Stade Brestois, who prepares his return to the club that revealed him.

Pulling all the stops out?

With two days to go until the derby, the atmosphere is building up slowly at the Route de Lorient. Before a game opposing two clubs that never met in such advantageous sportive position at the same time, Stade Rennes is trying to set up the atmosphere with a score of Breton symbolic and references.

TITRE

Rennes’ poor run continues

Ligue 1, Auxerre 2 - 1 Stade rennais. Rarely successful at l'Abbé-Deschamps, Stade Rennes were once more unable to get the 3 points from their trip in Bourgogne. Worse, Frédéric Antonetti’s men conceded two goals and a defeat. They have now failed to win since October 3rd.

M’Vila will see Wembley

On Wednesday afternoon, Laurent Blanc announced his squad for France’s next friendly, to be played against England at Wembley. Rennes’ Yann M’Vila will be involved in the game, while Rod Fanni will remain in Brittany

TITRE

Without a trace

Knocking at the doors of the French squad only a few months ago, Sylvain Marveaux is drifting through this early season like a ghost. Not concerned, not decisive, the left winger seems miles away to the level of skill he displayed last season. Despite this, Frédéric Antonetti seems to have unlimited confidence in his player’s ability. But for how long?

TITRE

Reserve : An encouraging draw for Rennes

CFA, Stade rennais 0 - 0 La Vitréenne. Is it the dawn of better days for Rennes’ reserve? Trashed on their own field by Le Mans on October 9th, Laurent Huard’s youngsters came back to a more rigorous and serene attitude against La Vitréenne to manage a draw and trigger some optimism. As long as they can repeat that sort of performance in the future.

TITRE

A game of two halves

Ligue 1, Stade Rennais 1 - 1 Olympique Lyonnais. After a storming start and a brilliant first-half, Stade Rennes failed to keep the rhythm in the second half and were left to share the points with Lyon.

More of a concern, Rennes is now looking for a victory since over a month and the success against Toulouse (3-1) in the eighth game week.

TITRE

Mangane’s suspension finally confirmed

Ligue 1, Stade rennais - Lyon, Saturday, 21:00 CET. The CNOSF has decided.

Frédéric Antonetti called a squad of eighteen players to take on Olympique Lyonnais, with youngster Jebbour to replace Kana-Biyik.

TITRE

What hierarchy in defence?

Following Kana-Biyik and Mangane’s suspensions, Rennes’ defence will be completely re-shuffled against Lyon’s attacking talents. With a quarter of the league played, a hierarchy is shaping in this highly competitive sector.

And now?

Unable to play last week-end, Stade Rennes are now turning their attention towards the next fixtures.

Marseille - Rennes postponed sine die

The match between Olympique de Marseille and Stade Rennes, initially scheduled this Saturday, 21:00 CET, has been postponed because of the heavy rain pouring all day over the stade Vélodrome.

Therefore, the game will be played at a later date to be determined.

TITRE

Is Rennes ready to grow?

Since the Pinault family took control, Stade Rennais has seen a lot of change in a few years, to become one of the most respected clubs in the country. After forty years of drought, Rennes finally reached the top of the league standings again. Waiting for recognition, favouring humility over the big ambitions. Is Rennes strong enough to be a leader ?

TITRE

TITRE

« So far, we haven’t stolen anything! »

Is Rennes a default leader? Certainly not if you listen to the Breton players, irritated at the lack of recognition to their good beginning of the season. Saturday night’s game in Marseille is, for Rod Fanni and his team-mates, a big occasion to prove a point.
