Lorenz Assignon was excellent again this Sunday against Nantes, while Nemanja Matić and the midfielder as a whole rose to the occasion.
Mandanda (5): He is the main culprit on the Nantes goal, between this desire to restart short and a little excess of confidence. In a slow time and a few seconds before the break, he should have cleared. Apart from this error which could have been costly, he was impeccable in the face of Nantes’ attempts. It also brings a lot of serenity.
Assignon (7,5) : The right side is transformed. He has gained confidence and it shows. He provoked the penalty very well at the start of the game, then he continued to take his lane to try to bring extra numbers and the ball into the area. Very solid defensively too, notably thanks to his speed which allowed him to catch up with his opponents and even drag Mohamed’s red. A hell of a performance.
Omari (5) : He completely lacked his control on Mandanda’s pass and was naively surprised by the Nantes pressure for the equalizer. Rather a shame, as he had been so clean and serious before this blunder: presence in the duel and well-crafted passes to break at least one line each time. He didn’t shake too much in the second half. His area of progress: gaining consistency and consistency over the entirety of a match.
Theate (6) : On his momentum, he delivered a serious and solid performance.
Truffert (6) : He also gained confidence. He plays forward, he no longer hides and projects more. He remained strong defensively.
Matić (7): 90 balloons hit! He was omnipresent, notably delivering a high-flying first period. A benchmark for his teammates, between the scratched balls and the tempo given by his passing choices and his technique. To make matters worse, his vice was welcome in such an encounter.
Bourigeaud (7): He certainly didn’t tremble to succeed in his favorite exercise: the penalty. A good way to put Rennais in front. He worked a lot alongside Matić, looking for good openings and beautiful passes. He could also have scored his free kick. His attitude resembled that of a captain. Replaced by Baptiste Santamaria (79e) to have the right to another beautiful ovation.
Wheels (5.5): An encouraging first start for the Swiss, endowed with a great volume of play. He tried to exist between the lines, he pressed and ran a lot, even if we feel that he can still gain presence in the midfield. Replaced by Désiré Doué (71st), scorer straight away with a little success and in the tone of this game.
Blas (6) : A very good first period with a certain complicity found with Lorenz Assignon on the right side. His technical quality allows him to keep the ball and his shot grazed Lafont’s top corner. He has gradually lost influence, a constant since the start of the season. Replaced by Guela Doué (90th)whose entry was once again stunning with a penalty obtained at the end of the match.
Gouiri (5) : A good start which could have been rewarded by a nice shot saved by Lafont. He is better, he is active, but he lacks sparks and decisive actions to really enter his season. Replaced by Ibrahim Salah (79e)always so energetic.
Lightning (5.5): He really brings something different with his profile and his incessant races. He never stops, as evidenced by his pressing at the end of the match. A little too short on certain crosses, even though he had also caused a penalty before being flagged for offside. Encouraging. Replaced by Arnaud Kalimuendo (90e)who celebrated his return by taking care of the second penalty.
