– Stade Rennais: An audience to win back

Despite the victory against , the public whistled at the final whistle and deprived their players of clapping. An end to the match understood by Julien Stéphan and Adrien Truffert, who say they want to improve to reconnect with the supporters.

A symbolic gesture, to mark the occasion. At the end of a match won painfully at home (1-0), the public at Roazhon Park whistled at Stade Rennais at the end of the 90 minutes, while the Mordelles stand had for the first time in its history refused a post-victory clapping.

The break is real at this stage of the season, between an audience with “expectations” and a team continuing to search for itself. “I understand that you have to win and play well right away. That's the theory and then there's the practice.”explained Julien Stéphan on Friday.

“In practice it's more difficult when there have been so many changes, so little knowledge of each other and we also had to delay the integration of certain players, particularly offensive players. This is not looking for excuses, just looking for explanations. Everything else I understand and that the public expects that ultimately, I find it normal”. “We can understand them, we know that we must do much better”agrees Adrien Truffert, not necessarily surprised by this scenario from last weekend.

“Keep working”

The two men then each had the same speech regarding the sequence of events. “It's certain that they were also a little affected by that but at the same time we must understand and seek to explain the public's discontent, but continue to work so that it is an additional source of motivation to make them happier at the future »admits Stéphan, optimistically.

“No one is satisfied with our start to the season from an accounting standpoint. The public, the players, us the staff. Everyone needs to be aware that this affects us a lot and that we are very aware of that, that we are doing what is necessary to continue to improve. But for all that we are here, we are not very far away and things are going very quickly in this dense and homogeneous championship. Anything can happen in the coming weeks. The sequence of the next matches will determine a slightly clearer position on what we will be able to do in the coming months.”

“We must not lose confidence because of this because we drew away at , we have just won (against Le Havre), we must keep this dynamic and try to make it last »continues Truffert. And thus win back an audience who will be waiting for their team at Roazhon Park on November 10 for the reception in , just before the break. For the atmosphere, the result won in Auxerre will probably set the tone.
