Rennes meltdown at Lorient

Cape Argus

|

August 25, 2025

A WEEK after winning their Ligue 1 opener with 10 men, Rennes played almost the whole game at Lorient on Sunday with nine, but this time lost 4-0.

“We need aggression,” said Rennes coach Habib Beye. “Last year we didn't have enough, now we have too much.”

The trouble for Rennes once again started before kickoff. Last week, central defender Mikayil Faye overslept and missed the season-opening win over Marseille, in which another defender, Abdelhamid Aït Boudlal, was sent off and suspended for Sunday’s game. With right-back Przemyslaw Frankowski injured, Moussa Al-Tamari was due to take over at wing-back but the Jordanian arrived late for a pre-match meeting and was dropped by Beye.

Mahdi Camara, a summer arrival from Saint-Étienne, stepped in for his Rennes debut. It lasted four minutes. Camara caught Lorient’s Dermane Karim in the head with his boot and was sent off.
