That's crazy!
This Sunday in Ligue 1, Stade Rennais traveled to Lorient's pitch for a hot Breton derby.
Facing the Merlus, the Red and Black had a very difficult start with Mahdi Camara's exclusion in the sixth minute of play following a high foot. It was also the midfielder's first start under his new colors.
If the Rennais thought they were already having a tough afternoon, the match got even more complicated just five minutes later with Christopher Wooh's exclusion (11th) for a foul in a last defender position.
Rennes therefore played the rest of the game... nine against eleven! Since Opta has been collecting this data in Ligue 1 (1992/93), no team has ever conceded two red cards so quickly.
The start of the season is definitely complicated for the Bretons, who had already conceded a red card on the first day of the championship against OM. The Rennais had still managed to win at the end of the suspense (1-0).
This time, the Red and Black did not perform the same feat as last week and collapsed against the Merlus (4-0).
