Rennes Defeats Angers 2-0, Terrier and Truffert Score to End Two-Game Winless Streak

Rennes have defeated Angers 2-0 in their latest Ligue 1 match, securing a much-needed victory for the club. The game was played at Stade de la Beaujoire, and it was a closely contested affair from start to finish.

The first half saw both teams create opportunities, but neither could find the back of the net. However, Rennes finally broke through in the second half when striker Adama Traoré scored his first goal of the season. He finished off a well-worked move by rounding off the defence and slotting the ball past the Angers goalkeeper.

Just two minutes later, the visitors doubled their lead with a goal from winger Anthony Martial. His shot was deflected into the net by an Angers defender, giving Rennes a comfortable lead going into halftime.

Angers struggled to find a way back into the game in the second half, and Rennes were able to maintain their advantage until the final whistle. The win is a much-needed boost for Rennes, who had been struggling on the pitch in recent weeks.

Trainer Julien Stéphan praised his players' performance after the game, saying that they "showed great character" and "deserved this victory". The team's defensive efforts also received praise, with Stéphan highlighting the importance of not conceding goals against top-tier opposition.

Overall, Rennes' victory over Angers was a significant one for the club, as it ended their two-game winless streak. The team will now look to continue their good form in upcoming matches, as they aim to secure a place in Europe next season.
