Ligue 1: OM stalls against Rennes, Nice misses against Angers

2022-09-18T16:07:47.920Z


Marseille could not do better than a draw against Rennes (1-1) this Sunday, on the occasion of an 8th day which also saw the defeats at home of Nice and Clermont, and the first success of Ajaccio.


Animated, but without a winner.

Marseille and Rennes each had their highlights and chances at the Stade Vélodrome (1-1), which celebrated the return of the most capped player in its history, Steve Mandanda.

The Rennes goalkeeper couldn't do anything about Mattéo Guendouzi's equalizer, heading in from a Jordan Veretout corner (52').

A great way to catch up, he who scored against his camp after a one-two Traoré-Bourigeaud and a low cross from the Senegalese (25th).

Igor Tudor's OM, who nevertheless brought in Dimitri Payet, Cengiz Under and Luis Suarez at the end of the match, were content with a draw.

Enough to make him temporarily leader before the trip from PSG to Lyon this Sunday (8:45 p.m.).

This Sunday, Clermont will prefer to forget it.

The opener of Johann Gastien (3rd) did not prevent the Auvergnats from relapsing in front of their public, against Troyes (1-3).

A defense error gave Mama Baldé a victorious face-to-face against Mory Diaw (23rd).

Clermont (14 shots, 2 on target) then got frustrated, leaving gaping spaces behind.

Mama Baldé offered a double (54th) before turning into a passer for Renaud Ripart (83rd).

It is confirmed, the players of Bruno Irles have forgotten their poor start to the season, they who go back to 10th place just ahead of … Clermont.

Todibo (Nice) expelled after 9 seconds

A soft belly a little too high, again, for OGC Nice, which did not win the long-awaited second consecutive victory.

Unlike Angers (0-1), who had not yet won after six days of L1.

The SCO will however be able to thank Mr. Dechepy, who expelled Jean-Clair Todibo after … nine seconds, for a net goal annihilation, not so clear as that.

The Angevins found the fault with a superb strike from their captain, Nabil Bentaleb, shortly before half-time (43rd).

Good idea: the numerical superiority only lasted an hour, before the second yellow card for simulation for Sofiane Boufal (62nd).

But, without inspiration, the Aiglons were unable to ignite the end of the game and stuck in 13th place in the standings.

It will become urgent in Nice, as it was in Ajaccio.

The Corsican club has finally won a success, after six defeats including five in a row, for its return to the elite, in Brest (0-1).

The promoted Corsican found the fault with an overflow from Riad Nouri and a finish from Romain Hamouma (65th).

Beyond a palpable technical waste at the Francis-le-Blé stadium, we will remember the stretcher exits of Benjamin Leroy (Ajaccio) and Noah Fadiga (Brest), both hit in the head during separate actions.

In terms of accounting, the ACA remains the red lantern behind … Brest, which aligns a fifth game without winning.
