In an overall average game opposing two teams disposed in a 4-4-2 formation, the break came from a penalty kick scored by ex-Lyon player André Guy, who had transferred to Rennes in December 1970, after a questionable foul by Robert Valette. The referee, Mr. Vigilani had previously disallowed a goal by André Betta in the 58th minute for Rennes due to an offside position by Robert Rico.
This win was Rennes' second Coupe de France victory, their first win having come in the 1965 final against Sedan-Torcy. Lyon, suffered their second defeat in the final in the fourth Coupe de France final appearance, the first loss having been against AS Monaco in 1963.
