Stade Rennais suffered a heavy defeat against Olympique Lyonnais (4-1) on the 31st day of Ligue 1. Habib Beye, a Red and Black coach, did not hide his anger after the meeting, recognizing that the pill was difficult to swallow given the quality of the opponent and the collective performance of his team. According to him, the players were dominated on all levels, especially in the first two goals.

Beye also recognized some responsibility as a coach, but he pointed out that changes were needed within the club, particularly with respect to attitude. The defeat against Lyon is all the more disappointing as the season is marked by mixed results for Stade Rennais.

Day 31 of Ligue 1 proved to be intense with several important matches having already delivered their verdict. Paris Saint-Germain was defeated by Nice, while Strasbourg won a convincing victory against Saint-Étienne. Monaco made a draw against Le Havre, and Lyon crushed Stade Rennais.

This weekend, Olympique de Marseille receives Stade Brestois 29 in a crucial match to stay on the podium and dream of Champions League. The Marseillais must win in order to capitalize on Monaco’s faux pas and consolidate their second place. The game will follow live on DAZN.
