Overview

  • Rennes lost Mahdi Camara to a straight red in the 6th minute for a high boot on Dermane Karim, then saw Christopher Wooh sent off in the 11th for a last‑defender foul on Aiyegun Tosin.
  • Sambou Soumano (45+4), Aiyegun Tosin (47), Pablo Pagis (65) and Théo Le Bris (69) scored to seal Lorient’s derby rout.
  • Opta reported no precedent since at least 1992/93 for a Ligue 1 match in which the first two cards shown were red and issued to the same team so early.
  • Before kickoff, Beye removed Moussa Al‑Tamari from the squad for arriving late to a meeting, a move that framed his post‑match warning on professional standards.
  • Wooh reportedly injured his forearm in frustration after his dismissal and required stitches, while Rennes must quickly regroup for next weekend’s trip to Angers.
