"Rennes sacked Habib Beye earlier this week after a poor run of form, and reserve team boss Sebastien Tambouret steered them to an impressive victory on Friday. Despite making a strong start, the Parisiens fell behind in the 34th minute when Mousa Tamari teased Willian Pacho before cutting inside and firing into the bottom-left corner. Joao Neves almost provided an instant response for the visitors when he glanced Nuno Mendes' cross just wide before the break, but Rennes continued to look dangerous."
"However, Rennes doubled their lead in the 69th minute through Esteban Lepaul, who rose highest to power Sebastian Szymanski's inviting corner home with a thumping header. But just two minutes later, Ousmane Dembele halved the deficit when he flicked Mendes' deflected cross past Brice Samba, but it was not enough for the defending champions. Breel Embolo sealed the win nine minutes from time, combining with fellow substitute Ludovic Blas to chest home and clinch a first league win since January 3."
