Assisted perfectly by Ola Toivonen with a one-two, the Cameroonian displayed remarkable composure as he outplayed Mickaël Landreau to contribute to Bastia’s defeat (3-0).
Pleased with Makoun’s performance, his coach congratulated him, albeit with a touch of irony.
“I particularly commend Jean II Makoun. He has a knack for seizing offensive opportunities, although sometimes he lacks confidence in front of goal. Now, if Jean II keeps scoring, who knows how far we can go!” remarked Philippe Montanier on the official website of the Breton club.
Currently placed 12th with 37 points, Rennes trails only three points behind Bastia, who holds the 10th position.
