Saint-Germain remains undefeated this season after its success against Stade Rennais (3-1). A victory marked by a great performance from Bradley Barcola, author of a double. Although he recognized the opponent’s superiority, Julien Stéphan, the coach, contested certain refereeing decisions at a press conference.

Paris Saint-Germain won this Friday against Rennes (3-1) at the Parc des Princes. Led by a great Bradley Barcola, PSG delivered 70 very successful minutes before losing control of the match. Rennes could have even thought of pulling something off at the end of the match but Alidu Seidu’s goal was refused 10 minutes from the end of the match.

“If at the Park, we deserve to have two penalties, we must be whistled for them”

An arbitration situation which challenges Julien Stéphan, even if the Rennes coach recognized Parisian superiority at a press conference: “If at the Parc, we deserve to have two penalties, we must whistle them. We whistle with our mouths, we will until the end and we don’t hesitate last year, it cost us the victory here, I’m not saying that this time, it also costs us the victory. But there is certainly a penalty that would have. must have been whistled on the hand of Zaire-Emery I haven’t seen Alidu Seidu’s action again, I don’t know what happened I imagine it was justified if it was. checked at 3-2 with 10 minutes to go, the match would have been interesting to watch.”

In this meeting, Stade Rennais woke up too late with Arnaud Kalimuendo reducing the score in the 75th minute. A few minutes before added time, the second Breton goal was denied to Alidu Seidu, who took advantage of a favorable counterattack by touching the ball with his hand according to the video refereeing.

While PSG consolidates its leadership position before challenging Arsenal in the Champions League this week, Rennes, with this defeat, remains in the soft underbelly of Ligue 1. The upcoming schedule is not easy for the men by Julien Stéphan since they will host Monaco before traveling to , for the Breton derby.
