Auxerre hits Rennes for four

AJ Auxerre put in a dominant performance at home, defeating Stade Rennais 4-0 in a one-sided Ligue 1 encounter on Sunday.

Goals from Kays Ruiz-Atil, Nuno da Costa, Hamza Sakhi, and Gaëtan Perrin sealed a comfortable victory for Auxerre, who moved up to 12th place in the league standings with 21 points from 19 games.

Ruiz-Atil's early strike sets the tone

Auxerre took the lead in the 10th minute when Ruiz-Atil latched onto a loose ball in the Rennes area and fired a low shot into the bottom corner.

The hosts doubled their advantage in the 25th minute through da Costa, who tapped in from close range after a good cross from the right.

Rennes, who had won their previous two league games, struggled to create clear-cut chances and found themselves 3-0 down just before halftime when Sakhi headed home a corner.

The visitors' misery was compounded in the 55th minute when Perrin added a fourth for Auxerre with a well-taken finish.

Rennes remain in fifth place despite the defeat, with 34 points from 19 games.
