Marseille and Rennes played out a thrilling encounter in the Ligue 1 matchday 26 fixture on Saturday evening. The two teams went into the game with contrasting fortunes as Marseille looked to bounce back from their recent defeats while Rennes were looking to extend their unbeaten run.

The match began with both teams trying to assert their dominance but it was Marseille who had the first chance of the game. However, they failed to convert their efforts and the game remained goalless until the second half when Rennes found the breakthrough.

Guendouzi scored his fourth goal for Rennes, putting them ahead in the 58th minute. This goal was controversial however, as it was disallowed by the referee after being deemed offside. The incident sparked a heated discussion between the players and fans alike, leading to some tension in the stadium.

Despite this setback, Rennes continued to dominate proceedings and almost doubled their lead in the 77th minute through a penalty kick. However, Marseille were not to be beaten and equalized just three minutes later through a well-taken effort from Gomis.

In the end, the match ended in a 1-1 draw, leaving both teams disappointed with the result. Despite the controversial disallowance of Guendouzi's goal, Marseille will take heart from their performance against a strong Rennes side. On the other hand, Rennes will look to bounce back from this defeat and continue their impressive form.
