Spurs continued to dominate possession and create chances, with the French side struggling to keep up with the pace and intensity of the game.
The second goal came in the 54th minute, with Son Heung-min finding the back of the net with a stunning volley. The Korean forward controlled the ball beautifully before unleashing a rocket of a shot that left the Rennes goalkeeper with no chance. Spurs continued to create chances throughout the game, but two goals were enough to secure a comfortable win.
