Rennes has broken into Europe with a convincing 3-0 win over Nice in the Ligue 1 round 30 matchday. The result was a major boost for Rennes, who had been struggling to find their form this season.
The match was played at Stade de la Beaujoire and saw Rennes take control from the off, with goals coming from Yann M'Vila, Adama Traore and Benjamin Mendy. The first goal came after just six minutes when M'Vila found space on the left wing and sent in a cross which was headed home by Traore.
The second goal came two minutes later when Mendy broke through the Nice defense and finished off a well-worked move. And the third goal came late in the game when Traore picked out a pass for Mendy who slotted home from close range.
Despite losing two key players through injury before the match, Rennes showed their resilience as they battled hard throughout the match. They were able to keep Nice at bay for most of the game and only conceded a late penalty which was converted by Nice's defender.
The victory means that Rennes have now qualified for the Europa League next season, and it will be a huge boost for the team going forward. It also shows that Rennes can compete at the top level of French football, and that they have what it takes to challenge for honours in Europe.
Overall, Rennes' victory against Nice is a significant achievement for the team, and it is a testament to the hard work and dedication of the players. With this win under their belt, Rennes now look set to make a strong challenge for honours in the upcoming seasons.
