Brest and Rennes Draw 1-1 in Uninspiring Match
Lackluster Performance Leaves Both Teams Disappointed
Haris Belkebla Scores Penalty for Brest
FC Brest and Stade Rennais played out a dull 1-1 draw in Ligue 1 Uber Eats on Saturday, with neither team able to break the deadlock until the second half. Haris Belkebla converted a penalty for Brest in the 55th minute, but Rennes fought back to equalize through Jeanuël Belocian's free-kick in the 75th minute.
The result leaves both teams in mid-table, with Brest in 11th place and Rennes in 10th. It was a disappointing outcome for both sides, who had been hoping to build on their recent good form.
The match was played in front of a sparse crowd at the Stade Francis-Le Blé, and the atmosphere was flat for much of the game. Both teams struggled to create chances, and the few that did come their way were wasted.
Brest had the better of the first half, but they failed to make the most of their possession. Rennes improved in the second half and eventually got their reward when Belocian curled in a free-kick from the edge of the box.
The draw means that Brest have now failed to win in their last three matches, while Rennes have drawn their last two. Both teams will be hoping to get back to winning ways when they return to action next weekend.
