Rennes v PSG: Lepaul reveals his game plan to beat Paris | OneFootball

The 22nd day of Ligue 1 saw Stade Rennais host Paris Saint-Germain. And despite a game largely dominated by the Parisians, it was indeed the Bretons who created the surprise and won 3-1 against the players of the capital club (see the video summary). Estéban Lepaul, a 25-year-old forward for SRFC and scorer tonight, spoke to the Ligue1+ channel about his goal and the instructions that allowed his team to win:

Lepaul: "We have to go after them and show character"

Tell us about your goal.

We had worked on set-pieces with certain areas to target. The corner was well taken and my movement opened up the opportunity for a great header.

What were the offensive instructions?

We were instructed not to let them do what they wanted. We know that if they play high, it's difficult and they are more dangerous. We have to go after them and show character, that's what we worked on. We had nothing to lose. We wanted to bounce back and start something good, and that's what we did perfectly tonight, and it's magnificent.
