2011-2012 Season

Coupe de France, Stade Rennais - Évian, Tuesday 18:00 CET. In order to try and reach the quarter-finals of the Coupe de France, Frédéric Antonetti called a group similar to the nineteen men who made the trip to Nancy last Saturday, to one exception: Yassine Jebbour is replaced by Dimitri Foulquier.

Ligue 1, Nancy 0 - 0 Stade rennais. In difficult conditions, Stade Rennais didn’t shine but still manage to salvage a draw from their trip to Nancy. After a lively and balanced first half, the second was more difficult for the Rennais, who never managed to find a way round the Nancéiens.

Ligue 1, Nancy - Stade Rennais, Saturday 15:00 CET. In order to keep up with the leading pack, Stade Rennais must win in Lorraine or see the European positions drift away. With this objective in Mind, Mevlüt Erding, arrived just over a week, should be offered his first start with the Stade Rennais.

Despite the defeat against Marseille, the Rouge et Noir are convinced they can manage an European place, or even better. Explanations before the trip to Nancy next Saturday.

Departures. After a year and a half in Brittany, Georges Mandjeck is leaving the Rouge et Noir and moving to Burgundy. The Cameroonese failed to become a first team regular in Rennes, because o a strong competition, and of some difficult relationships.

Ligue 1, Stade rennais 1 - 2 Marseille. Exciting in the first half, Stade Rennais paid the strong price for its mistakes in Marseille. Not clinical enough when they could have extended their lead after Doumbia scored the opener, the Rennais then saw Marseille come back and win the game following collective mistakes by the Rouge et Noir.

Ligue 1, Stade rennais - Marseille, Sunday 21:00 CET. Arrived in Rennes this week, Mevlüt Erding will be the main attraction of this game against Olympique Marseille. The French-Turkish striker could even start the game in attack.

Before the reception of Marseille on Sunday, Yann M’Vila, the Stade Rennais international is in great form. With the Rouge et Noir, he targets the third place in Ligue 1 and vows to win the Coupe de France “and enter in the club’s history”.

Transfer. After several months of waiting, Stade Rennes has finally completed the transfer of Mevlüt Erding. The new Rennes number 9 is eagerly awaited in Brittany, considered by many as the “missing link” in attack. Lacking playing time in Paris, he will need to regain confidence and enthusiasm with the Rouge et Noir.

Coupe de France, Nice 0 - 0 Stade rennais (4-5 pen.). Despite a lack of imagination in attack, Frédéric Antonetti obtained their qualification for the next round through a penalty-shootout session. Unable to score during the hundred and twenty minutes of regular time, Stade Rennes made the difference with a decisive save by the spotless Benoît Costil. Once again.
