"Jordanian midfielder Mousa Al-Tamari charged forward on the counterattack and found enough space between two defenders on the edge of the penalty area to curl in a superb opener. PSG came into the game but was hesitant in front of goal and Esteban Lepaul doubled Rennes' lead midway through the second half. The prolific center forward rose highest to bullet a header past Matvey Safonov for his 11th goal of the season."
"Coachless Rennes stunned Ligue 1 leaders Paris Saint-Germain 3-1 at home and snapped a five-game winless run on Friday. The home side fired coach Habib Beye on Monday after their early season gains looked to be slipping away, and they were a firm underdog against PSG. Last season's treble winners moved back into top spot ahead of Lens last weekend with a 5-0 hammering of Marseille, their seventh success in a row in the league."
Rennes sacked coach Habib Beye on Monday and then defeated Paris Saint-Germain 3-1 at home, snapping a five-game winless run. Rennes started confidently, hit the post early, and opened the scoring in the 33rd minute when Mousa Al-Tamari charged forward and curled in a superb opener. Esteban Lepaul headed home midway through the second half for his 11th goal, Ousmane Dembélé pulled one back two minutes later, and Breel Embolo sealed the win in the 81st with a counterattack finish. Rennes moved above Lille into fifth; PSG stayed top but risked being overtaken by Lens.
