Lille Defeats Rennes 1-0 on Club's 80th Anniversary

Edon Zhegrova's decisive goal highlights Lille's dominance, while Rennes struggles in Jorge Sampaoli's managerial debut.

Lille celebrated its 80th anniversary with a 1-0 victory over Rennes, maintaining its unbeaten streak across 11 matches in all competitions.
Edon Zhegrova scored the game's only goal just before halftime, marking his eighth goal of the season and solidifying his role as Lille's standout performer.
Rennes, under new manager Jorge Sampaoli, failed to register significant offensive threats and suffered their third consecutive Ligue 1 loss.
Rennes' Alidu Seidu sustained a serious knee injury early in the match, diagnosed as a ruptured ligament, ruling him out for the rest of the season.
With this win, Lille remains fourth in Ligue 1, just one point behind third-placed Marseille, while Rennes continues to struggle near the relegation zone.
