The reaction of pride and the expected renewal with the arrival of Jorge Sampaoli on the Stade Rennais bench will not have borne fruit this Sunday. Rennes lost 1-0 to LOSC with a goal from Edon Zhegrova just before half-time and showed a rather harmless face by only scoring once in four attempts. A third consecutive defeat which is worrying because the Bretons find themselves in 15th place with 11 points, only one point from the relegation zone. But the Argentine coach believes that “this match is a good starting point. »
“We need time to find answers”
After the match, the former OM coach analyzed the content of the match. “It was a very balanced match. We really tried to play with defensive rigor. The idea was to avoid being disorganized, and it worked quite well, but we took this aim. Offensively, we lacked arguments. » In final words, he asked for time to be able to find answers. “We had little time to work with this group of players. By working, we will improve to create more offensive actions than the opponent. »
