Decisive figure drives Lyon past Rennes in top-three push | OneFootball

Endrick settled the contest in the 75th minute with a right-footed finish into the top right, as Lyon beat Rennes 4-2. It crowned a performance built on chance creation and constant menace.

Early on, he saw a drive from distance blocked (10.). Moments later he cut across the edge of the box and shot wide from range (27.).

After the restart, he turned provider, swinging in a cross that Roman Yaremchuk headed on target, drawing a save (63.).

His decisive moment arrived when Corentin Tolisso fed him and he thumped it high into the top right (75.). He then slipped another through ball that opened Rennes up again, forcing a low save from a team-mate's effort (79.).

He finished with three attempts, four chances created and eight dribbles, three of them successful, underlining how he linked attacks and repeatedly pushed the visitors back.

Because Les Gones found him between the lines and combined quickly around him, his movements kept Rennes' back line unsettled and ensured the key phases went Lyon's way.

Les Gones rise from fourth to third in Ligue 1 and visit Toulouse next. Rennes remain fifth and host Paris FC next.
