Auxerre snatches late victory over dominant Rennes
Rennes controlled the majority of the game against Auxerre at the Roazhon Park this Saturday, April 6th, but their lack of finishing and a late goal conceded left them disappointed. With 63% possession and 18 shots (5 on target), Rennes dominated possession and created numerous chances, including 8 corners. However, Auxerre, despite having only 37% possession and 11 shots (3 on target), proved defensively resolute and capitalized on a single opportunity in the 89th minute. Jubal Junior, assisted by G. Perrin, scored the only goal of the match, securing a 0-1 victory for the visitors. Despite Rennes’ statistical superiority, their inability to convert chances and Auxerre’s efficiency resulted in an unexpected defeat for the home side. The match was officiated by Florent Batta from France.
