After the introduction of Ludovic Blas, the substitute teed up Breel Embolo to level (86.).

Lionel M'Pasi kept Le Havre in front for long spells with six saves, thwarting a dominant home side.

Stéphanie Frappart oversaw a frantic finish, with a flurry of late Rennes corners, but no winner arrived.

Rennes posted 19 attempts, seven on target, and had 54.4% possession. Le Havre registered seven attempts, four on target, with M'Pasi's workload underlining their backs-to-the-wall display.

Next, Rennes host Lorient. Le Havre host Monaco.
