If the exclusion of Matthew Cafaro after 37 minutes of play was the first turning point of this meeting, the reality of the figures translates before and after this fact of play an undivided domination of the Rennais who then rolled on ASSE in the second half.
Thus, possession is final, the Greens ran after the ball for 90 minutes (28%) and watched the Rennais make passes (690 against 270) and develop their game. Before the exclusion of Cafaro, the players of Sampaoli even came close to having 82% of ball possession, the Greens completely abandoning control to the Bretons, contenting themselves with a few banderillas on the counter.
Offensively, it turned into a demonstration with 18 shots for the locals against two for the Stéphanois. The Greens did not score any shots in this match. Direct translation of this offensive domination, with the Expected Goals which are also largely favorable to Rennais (3.2 against 0.1).
Olivier Dall'Oglio's players are ahead in terms of duels won (57%), tackles and clearances, symptoms of a team which spent its time trying to defend. Without success.
