Naif Aguerd and Sehrou Guirassy got their names on the scoresheet as Rennes recorded a 3-0 away win at Saint-Etienne on Saturday which restored their lead on the top of the Ligue 1 table.
Julian Stephan’s men took the lead,as Aguerd scored in the 33rd minute, heading the ball in from a Benjamin Bourigeaud corner kick.
They maintained that lead going into the break but just two minutes after the restart, Saint-Etienne had the ball in the back of the net through Arnaud Nordin. It was however ruled out for offside by the Video Assistant Referee.
Rennes grew in confidence as the game wore on and added a second in the 53rd minute via Guirassy, the 24-year-old forward of Guinean descent firing in an overhead kick having latched on to a cross from Romain Del Castillo.
Adrien Hunou got the job done with a lob over Saint-Etienne goalie Jessy Moulin one minute from time.
