Mura’s players seem to have regained confidence in this second half. They show themselves more and get as many chances as the Rennes, who will have to be careful.
Terrier is already making a name for itself. The new entrant addresses a good cross on the left for Bourigeaud who is recovering in force. His powerful recovery clearly misses the point.
It’s half time! Stade Rennais is in front! (1-2, 45th +1)
Stade Rennais logically leads the score at the break after a fast-paced and lively first period. Mura’s players aren’t just defending and have also had a few chances, especially thanks to goal scorer Lotric. Genesio’s men will have to be careful because they are not immune to an opposing return.
Alone, the Rennes number 10 started from the left, hooked the defender and attempted a cross shot with his right foot which passed just beside Obradovic’s left post.
Like a fox of the surfaces, the former Montpellier, well placed, takes a strike from Santamaria repelled by the goalkeeper of Mura who comes back to him in the feet. Lucid, he places the ball perfectly.
The Rennes midfielder takes back a good cross from Traoré, but he is not well balanced and misses his gesture. He propels his shot in the stands of the Ljudski vrt stadium.
While they were in perfect control of the game, Genesio’s players are in the process of lowering their footing from Lotric’s equalizing goal. They no longer manage to be dangerous and concede opportunities.
Launched in depth, the Mura striker took advantage of the laxity of the Rennes defense to present himself against Gomis. He does not tremble and strikes very full axis, leaving the Stade Rennais goalkeeper helpless. Mura is already gluing together!
The Slovenes react with a rapid counterattack. Lotric is receiving a cross and tries a recovery from the penalty spot, but it comes close to the amount of Gomis who seemed beaten.
The former Amiens decides to take justice into his own hands. He shows up to hit the penalty and perfectly adjusts the opposing goalkeeper with a cross shot on the left side. Rennes takes the lead!
While not attacked, the top scorer in Ligue 1 attempts a strike at the entrance to the area. His attempt, too crushed, largely missed the goals of Obradovic.
The Stade Rennais captain rises higher than everyone else to cut the trajectory of the corner perfectly hit by Bourigeaud. His powerful header lands on the crossbar.
On a nice handover from Laborde, the second Rennes striker came face to face with Mura’s goal but completely tangled up the brushes and failed to shoot.
Bruno Genesio chose to start his team in 4-4-2. The Rennes attacking duo is made up of Sehrou Guirassy and Ligue 1 top scorer, Gaetan Laborde. The eleven: Gomis – Traoré – Omari – Aguerd – Truffert – Bourigeaud – Santamaria – Tait – Sulemana – Guirassy – Laborde.
In their distance duel with Tottenham, any result other than a victory over the modest Slovenes would be seen as a huge disappointment for Rennes. A large success could offer them first place in Group G.
The two teams have never faced each other in their history. Stade Rennais is undefeated in its last 5 games (4 wins and 1 draw), while NS Mura remains on a series of 4 consecutive defeats.
Welcome to this live commentary for one of the posters for Matchday 3 of the group stage of the Europa League Conference. This Thursday, October 21, 2021, in Group G, NS Mura (4th) receives Stade Rennais (2nd) at Ljudski vrt stadium in Maribor. Kick-off 6:45 p.m.!
