Raphinha, striking on his right side, caused the fault of William Saliba in the Stéphane area. The referee does not hesitate and designates the penalty spot without consulting the video assistance (VAR).

Niang, started by Julien Stéphan at the forefront of the Rouge et Noir attack, sent an overpowered shot to the back of the net for Jessy Moulin to give Rennes the advantage in the semi-final.
