It’s over!
Stade Rennais won easily (3-0) this Sunday at home and pushed Montpellier even further.
16:52
Adams still too short (90’+3, 3-0)
New cross for the MHSC centre forward who sees the ball go over his head.
16:49
Four minutes of added time (89′, 3-0)
Still a few minutes to play in this match.
16:48
Jota stopped in his tracks (87′, 3-0)
The former Al-Ittihad player is caught by the Hérault defence and jostled in the shoulder. No penalty for Montpellier.
16:45
Change for Montpellier (84′, 3-0)
Nzingoula is replaced by Khazri.
16:42
Changes for Rennes (80′, 3-0)
Ludovic Blas, who scored from a free kick to open the scoring, is replaced by the more defensive profile of Glen Kamara. Adrien Truffert gives up his place on the left flank to Mahamadou Nagida.
16:36
Savanier adjusts his balls (76′, 3-0)
The Palladin captain is the only one to stand out this Sunday on the MHSC side. Another very good ball on a free kick but the Breton defense keeps the danger away again.
16:33
Assignon strolls (72′, 3-0)
The Rennes full-back once again showed his liveliness and confused his opposite number before crossing hard into the Hérault area. The Paillade defence cleared.

The Rennes supporters’ tifo
16:22
Goal for Rennes!!! (61′, 3-0)
Gronbaek for the third Breton goal, his first this season!! Stade Rennais breaks away. Kalimuendo controls with his chest in the Montpellier area, protects his ball and heels for Blas who cannot shoot. The action continues in a small perimeter in front of the area, Gronbaek slaloms and scores with force, low on the right. Rennes unfolds, Montpellier sinks.
16:17
The Héraultais show their teeth (55′, 2-0)
Der Zakarian’s players are better at the start of the second half. They are more daring and are moving forward. This goal could have given them a definitive boost.
16:16
Goal for Montpellier!! … finally disallowed (50′, 2-0)
Mr. Pignard consults the VAR to find out if an offside position taints Akor Adams’ goal on a free kick from Hérault. The verdict falls for Montpellier after long minutes and the goal is finally disallowed for an offside position on Savanier’s ball. The score remains at 2-0 for Stade Rennais.
16:05
Kalimuendo trop court (46’, 2-0)
Blas crosses from the outside of his left foot to find Kalimuendo’s head but the PSG-trained forward is too short.
16:04
Here we go again!
Start of the second half between Rennes and Montpellier.
15:50
my time
Stade Rennais are comfortably leading at half-time (2-0) thanks to goals from Blas (24th) and Kalimuendo (35th). Montpellier are in great difficulty in Brittany.
15:46
Savanier tests Mandanda! (44′, 2-0)
The Hérault captain tries his luck from 30 meters and sends a heavy strike that Mandanda deflects with difficulty for a corner.
15:42
Rennes’ second goal on video
15:42
Adams goes through! (40′, 2-0)
Very good free kick from Savanier who finds Adams in the Rennes area but the Hérault centre forward cannot take the ball properly. Mandanda grabs the ball.
15:39
Kalimuendo not far from a double! (38′, 2-0)
Rennes counterattack where Truffert intelligently shifts the ball to Kalimuendo who cannot get the shot off. Good comeback from the Hérault defence which has been suffering enormously for several minutes.
15:34
Goal for Rennes!!! (34′, 2-0)
Kalimuendo doubles the lead! Rennes show off the explosiveness of their full-backs! Assignon gets the better of his opponent before sending a perfect cross onto Kalimuendo’s head. Lecomte can’t do anything. The Red and Blacks break away. Montpellier sinks.
15:32
Dzodic tries away ! (32′, 1-0)
The young Serbian defender from MHSC tries to find Mandanda’s top corner from 25 meters. Without success.
15:31
Nordin shows himself again (31′, 1-0)
The Hérault winger tries to shoot inside the Rennes area but the ball is blocked by Wooh.
15:30
The Rennes goal on video
15:30
Matusiwa didn’t score for Nordin (28′, 1-0).
Nordin grimaces along the touchline after Matusiwa’s late, muscular tackle. The Rennes midfielder is lectured by Mr Pignard and narrowly avoids a yellow card.
15:23
Goal for Rennes!! (24′, 1-0)
Blas opens the scoring for Stade Rennais! For their first shot on target of the match, the Bretons took full advantage of this free kick. Gronbaek shifts Blas on a judicious combination before the Red and Black’s number 11 curls it with his left foot to deceive Lecomte and the apathetic Hérault defence. 1-0 for the locals. 2nd goal of the season for the Breton playmaker.
15:23
Very interesting free kick for Rennes (22′, 0-0)
The Bretons recover a very good free kick at the edge of the Montpellier area.
15:20
Rennes slows down (18′, 0-0)
As has been the case since the beginning of the season, the Red and Blacks have the unfortunate habit of dropping intensity very quickly in the match. Despite a good start to the game, it has been a few minutes since the Bretons saw less of the ball.
15:17
MHSC comes out more (17′, 0-0)
Despite a complicated first quarter of an hour but without having suffered any real chances (only 1 shot from Rennes), the Héraultais are now trying to develop their game in the Breton camp. We see a lot more Téji Savanier, and that is a good sign for Montpellier.
15:16
Nordin misses his shot! (14′, 0-0)
Great move by Montpellier! The playmaker and captain of Hérault, Savanier, sends a very good cross to Nordin at Mandanda’s near post, but the MHSC number 7 completely misses his volley. The first interesting offensive move by Montpellier.
15:13
The Hérault defense in difficulty (12′, 0-0)
Rennes’ offensive movements are becoming more and more fluid. Assignon is found in depth and sends a strong cross in front of Lecomte who cannot intervene. The MHSC defense finally clears the danger, with difficulty.
15:09
Seidu cautioned (8′, 0-0)
Yellow card for Breton defender Alidu Seidu, who was too aggressive with Arnaud Nordin.
15:07
MHSC deprived of balls (7′, 0-0)
Michel Der Zakarian’s players don’t see the ball at the start of the match. They can’t create anything at all and are subject to Rennes’ passing.
15:05
Santamaria tries from 25 meters (5′, 0-0)
The Rennes midfielder takes his chance from outside the Hérault area. Without success.
15:03
Rennes have their foot on the ball (3′, 0-0)
The Bretons are quietly developing their game in the Montpellier camp and are trying to get around the grouped and low defense of the Héraultais.
15:02
The Héraultais go on the counterattack (1′, 0-0)
Nordin passes Adams to MHSC but Rennes central defender Wooh anticipates well and recovers the ball to get his team back on track.
14:59
Here we go!
Start of this Rennes-Montpellier!
14:55
Both teams enter the pitch
The meeting begins in a few seconds.
14:43
The players are warming up
14:42
The rebound or the crisis
The Bretons and Héraultais have been struggling in recent weeks. The Rennais, 11th in the standings, are on two consecutive away defeats (3-1 in Strasbourg and 2-1 in Reims) and will have to raise their heads in front of their home crowd this Sunday.
The situation is (very) far from better in Montpellier. Michel Der Zakarian’s men are second to last in the championship. MHSC is still looking for its first victory this season after its draw against Strasbourg (1-1), the thrashing suffered in Paris (6-0) and the defeat against Nantes (3-1).
