West Ham United suffered a first defeat of pre-season on Saturday as Stade Rennais secured a 3-1 win in an entertaining contest at Roazhon Park.
The French side took an early lead through Baptiste Santamaria’s stunning long-range strike, but West Ham worked their way back into the contest and levelled midway through the second half thanks to Tomáš Souček’s towering header from a free-kick.
However, Rennes went again and re-took the lead 15 minutes from time when France U21 international Arnaud Kalimuendo flicked home from close range.
The Hammers valiantly pushed for another equaliser but, right at the end, the unfortunate Angelo Ogbonna put through his own goal as the hosts claimed victory in north-western France.
