The Girondins started this round of 32 meeting seriously in the middle block to counter the opposing team. Bruno Irles lined up the big lineup.
Rennes appeared dangerous from the first quarter of an hour by passing on the sides, particularly the right. However, it is Bordeaux on its first foray which opens the scoring not Bahassa (20th). The left winger takes from the right with first intention a ball poorly cleared by Gallon, the Rennes goalkeeper. The stadium and the lined bench exult. Rennes quickly equalize on an action coming from a touch, Bai and Diabaté are beaten (1-1). The Girondins had not conceded a goal for a month. Then, Merdji doubled the lead after a lot of work from Trichard and Bahassa but the referee refused this achievement for an offside position. Bordeaux set the Rennes defense on fire at the end of the first period. Rennes responded before the end of this half with a header from Kalimuendo which ended on Diabaté's post.
Returning from the locker room, Irlès rotates and releases Yambéré and Mutyaba for Diaw and Diallo. Depussay has an opportunity to score with a shot from 16 meters, but the goalkeeper makes a save (47th). Diaw intervenes and saves his side from a furious tackle in the 53rd. It was finally Rennes who doubled the lead in the 58th minute (1-2). Assogba replaces Bai. In the 75th minute, Rennes tripled the lead, then scored the 4th goal through Assignon and Kalimuendo.
