Rennes-OL: Boateng’s enormous anger on Dubois after a situation in Rennes – RMC Sport

While OL signed a catastrophic first period on the ground of Rennes this Sunday, at the end of the 13th day of Ligue 1, the image of the great anger of Jerome Boateng on Léo Dubois seems symbolic.

Zero. Like zero goals, zero shots on target, zero shots at all for OL this Sunday, in the first period of their match on the Rennes pitch, at the end of the 13th day of Ligue 1. After his fine performance against Sparta Prague ( 3-0) and its qualification for the knockout stages of the Europa League, Lyon was not there at all before half-time.

Lopes very annoyed

What strongly warm the spirits. Anthony Lopes suffered 12 shots, including eight on target, for a goal conceded just before the break, signed Gaëtan Laborde. Very annoyed, the Portuguese goalkeeper has repeatedly shouted at his teammates to make them react and demand more defensive rigor.

But the striking – and ultimately symbolic – image of the first period is this impressive rise in tension between Jerome Boateng and Léo Dubois, his captain, in the 39th minute.

A problem with the marking?

Without being able to know exactly what the two men said to each other, the German defender seemed to blame the French side for a certain lax marking, while Rennes was still heating the surface of Lopes. An action started from the Breton goal, with an express rise of the ball.

It must be said that the international tricolor did not prevent Martin Terrier from relaying the beautiful action by reversing the game, without stopping either his permutation to go and stay warm in the area, while Bourigeaud tried to place himself in his back. The opening scoring will come just before half-time, from Gaëtan Laborde on a corner. On the action, Dubois covered Terrier well, not involved. Laborde was in the area … of Boateng.
