Montpellier 2 - 0 Stade Rennais FC: Montpellier into top half with win over Rennes
Posted Sunday, May 08, 2016 by PA
Montpellier banished memories of a terrible start to the Ligue 1 season by closing in on a top-half finish with a 2-0 home victory over Rolland Courbis' Rennes.
La Paillade lost six of their first seven games but could now finish as high as seventh after second-half goals from Casimir Ninga and Ryad Boudebouz delivered a fourth straight league win.
In the 58th minute at the Stade de la Mosson, Ninga beat Benoit Costil after Souleymane Camara had touched a Boudebouz cross his way.
Twelve minutes later the provider finished off a rapid Montpellier counter-attack with a powerful low shot.
