This match was a strong outing for the home team, Stade Brestois, as they secured a resounding 4-0 victory over Angers SCO in the Ligue 1 competition.
Dominance from the Brestois front line was evident on the day as they recorded a total of 7 shots on target compared to Angers' solitary effort. Regarding shots off target, Angers SCO, despite having more with 7 to Brestois' 2, failed to convert those opportunities into goals, perhaps due to a lack of precision and offensive organisation.
Remarkably, Stade Brestois managed to convert over 50% of their shots on target into goals. This success can be attributed to the fantastic collaboration between Franck Honorat and Jeremy Le Douaron, who together accounted for 2 goals and 3 assists. Steve Mounie and Pierre Lees Melou also contributed to the goal count, with Honorat assisting Melou's effort.
Corner kicks were evenly contested; Angers with 5 and Brestois with 4. Both teams were caught offside 3 times, suggesting a high defensive line of play, yet Angers' defense failed to deter Brestois' offensive threats.
On the disciplinary front, Angers were not as composed as their counterparts, with two of their players, Nabil Bentaleb and Batista Mendy, receiving a yellow card each, while Stade Brestois avoided any bookings. Considering fouls, Angers committed significantly more with 17, compared to Brestois' 10, further emphasising their struggles in maintaining discipline and control during the match.
In conclusion, this match showcased Stade Brestois' superior offensive prowess led by Honorat and Le Douaron, combined with Angers SCO's underwhelming performance both defensively and offensively. The inability of Angers to convert their chances, coupled with their lack of discipline (evidenced by the number of fouls and yellow cards), were key factors leading to their downfall in this match. On the other hand, Stade Brestois demonstrated a balanced and structured approach to the game, a testament to their cohesive teamwork and match readiness.
