Even if Didier Deschamps started him for France-Sweden Tuesday night in the League of Nations, where he found the way to the nets , Olivier Giroud heard the warning sent to him by the coach of the Blues in recent days .

Camavinga is arguably Rennes star player. Against the London team, Camavinga hopes to regain his coach's confidence. After all, the French need a knockout blow to help them turn around their situation and make a bid for third place in the group, which they hold on equal terms with Krasnodar.

Entered in the 69th minute in place of Tammy Abraham, Olivier Giroud brought a radically different profile to the stirring British. An entry, combined with that of Ngolo Kanté, to ensure the stability of the Blues, on the way to qualification in eighth. In the entry bath, as on this deflection in the air for Callum Hudson-Odoi (72nd), Giroud used the Rennes central axis in the duel. And while Rennes believed to hold the draw, the former Gunner appeared out of nowhere to play Gerzino Nyamsi in the air and place a perfect header out of reach of Alfred Gomis (90th + 1) . A header all the more perfect as it sent Chelsea to the round of 16. Second goal with Chelsea this season and third of the week after the double against Sweden (4-2) . This Giroud is insatiable.

Rennes: Camavinga says more about its future!

The talented and courted Eduardo Camavinga, an 18-year-old Rennes midfielder, spoke on Wednesday morning at a press conference about his future. © Supplied by Football 365 EDUARDO CAMAVINGA (RENNES) The 18-year-old Stade Rennais midfielder has been in the spotlight since last season. Notably after a victory (2-1) that became a reference against PSG on August 18, 2019, in which he distinguished himself by winning his first personal man of the match trophy.

Rennes boss Julien Stephan has praised Chelsea striker Olivier Giroud , saying his professional attitude despite a lack of regular first-team football is an “exceptional” example for other players to follow.

Deschamps told Giroud he won't select him for the next Euro if he doesn't have game time, since Chelsea can't provide the game time required by Deschamps Giroud said he needs to find another club. Was that a handball from the Rennais player?

Serhou Guirassy’s abnegation

Serhou Guirassy did honor to his status as Stade Rennais’s sole scorer in the Champions League. Tough on hard, the Breton center-forward delivered a very big physical duel to Kurt Zouma, when he was not unbalanced by Thiago Silva as at the end of the first half. He never gave up, despite attempts which found Edouard Mendy on their way (38th, 73rd). Long impassable, the former Rennes goalkeeper finally had to bow to a header from Guirassy, ​​strangely alone in the area when he took the corner from Bourigeaud (85 '). Thus, the Rennes rookie puts an end to a shortage of more than a month when his goal dated back to… the reception of Krasnodar on the first day (1-1, 20 October).

In Rennes, the recruits are struggling

© Panoramic On October 5, Stade Rennais formalized the arrival of Jérémy Doku against 26 million euros. The signing of the Belgian nugget - the most expensive rookie in the club's history - combined with the prospect of discovering the most prestigious of competitions foreshadowed a bright future in Île-et-Villaine. However, Rennes have won only one game since (2-1 against Brest on October 31).

If Rennes had collected at least one point on Tuesday, Benjamin Bourigeaud would have had his share of credit. Omnipresent in the Breton midfield, the former Lensois spent his match orienting the game (81% of successful passes), especially on the right towards Doku and Traore. Sometimes around or in the box, he even found himself in a good position on a cross from Doku before being blocked (31st). Placed as a runner in Stéphan's 4-3-3, Bourigeaud also organized the top pressing of his team. Uneven precision on a free kick (45th) and on a corner eclipsed by his decisive pass for Guirassy (85th).

The FLOPS Day without for Eduardo Camavinga

The Rennes prodigy who celebrated his 18 years at the beginning of November has never been at the party this Tuesday. Already in difficulty against Bordeaux, the Rennes number 10 weighed too little in the Rennes environment. Positioned as a torchbearer, Eduardo Camavinga was too neutral and signed a performance that contrasts with that of his friend Bourigeaud. His distant left strikes (36th, 72nd) but without much conviction are symptomatic of a lackluster performance from the French international, replaced by Clément Grenier (78th), who loses the ball before Giroud’s goal.

Gerzino Nyamsi, fatal error

For his first match since January 24, Gerzino Nyamsi was called upon to compensate for the failure of the sick Nayef Aguerd. For his first Champions League match, the Breton rock has long contained a very mobile Tammy Abraham. Sometimes elsewhere, such as this unnecessarily conceded corner (61st), he benefited from the experience of captain Damien Da Silva at his side. The story could have been good for the Breton by birth, whose header from a corner was saved by Edouard Mendy on his line (74 '). But he took too long to come out on Ziyech late in the game before reacting too late on the rejected ball, benefiting Giroud, who was not asking for so much. Hard learning at the highest level.

Cesar Azpilicueta running out of rhythm

After four games on the bench, the Spaniard has regained a place in the eleven and his captain's armband. If he wasn’t bad, his offensive influence was almost non-existent for the Blues, when left-wing counterpart Ben Chilwell stepped up his attacking surges. Defensively, the former Marseillais remained serious, containing perfectly James Léa-Siliki then Romain Del Castillo, but found himself in difficulty as soon as Adrien Truffert came to bring the excess. He suffered in the duel, as on this header from Da Silva from a corner (41st). To his credit, he deflects the dangerous free kick from Bourigeaud (45th) with his head. He is the symbol of a Chelsea team that is doing without glory in Brittany.
