Legend: Plogastel Saint-Germain (D1) did it, Tony Le Bihan can raise his arms, victory is at the end against AS Calan (D1).
Seized on their first situation by the man in form, on the visiting side, author of a quadruple in the championship against Arzano (4-2), Aaron Bé, 18 years old, the former US Montagnarde player, showed all his qualities in front of goal. Taking advantage of the only moment of error from the local central hinge, he adjusted a perfect dive to beat Ivan Seznec (0-1, 18′).
For Plogastel Saint-Germain, the blow was hard to take, especially since the start had not been bad. The Tony Le Bihan/Jonathan Dizy duo even had ants in their legs. With his power and speed, the president, Jonathan Dizy was the man to watch for the visitors, capable of making the difference with each ball catch.
Accumulating the corners, with Louis Moreau, executing, Tony Le Bihan passed in front of his defender but his recovery did not find the target (32′). Fortunately in the tumbles, Jonathan Dizy put his defender, Romain Guennegues, on the grill. Clever too as soon as he made his first difference, he put in an inside hook. The opponent’s outstretched leg hit his foot, the referee did not hesitate in indicating the penalty point. The opportunity was perfect in the 44th minute, Alexandre Baudrier wrong-footed Lilian Bas (1-1, 44′).
With a violent wind, inevitably disturbing the 22 players, and continuous rain from the 30th minute, this match could turn into both camps. Plogastel’s strength lay in the midfield turbines. The trio Malo Nédelec/Tom Helouet/Louis Moreau clearly took the upper hand over a Morbihan environment, less mobile, and capable of being holed over 10/20 m by an acceleration from Louis Moreau. Behind, the pair Etienne Signor/Nolan Le Roy was strong, enough to be able to constantly advance in this match.
Before the hour mark, with the support of the wind, Tony Le Bihan attempted Jarnac’s move of the match, daring the direct corner. Why not my faith! Lilian Le Bas misjudged the floating trajectory of the ball, which was lodged under the Calanais bar. Plogastel took the lead for the first time before the hour mark, and did not let up.
This local team was playful, did not calculate its lead. Only, like a metronome, Ivan Seznec sought to lower the general temperature, by calming the enthusiasm, on referrals. But pushed by these dashing teammates, he also went about his rapid recovery. This one was millimeter, sending 70 meters in the race of Tony Le Bihan, who still had juice (he will finish the match with cramps, in the middle of the lawn), he did his last sprint at high intensity, the one which delivered an entire club (3-1, 85′). He adjusted the opposing goalkeeper for the qualifying goal. In stoppage time, Alexandre Baudrier, in the surrounding euphoria, sharply hit the ball, which landed on the crossbar (90’+1).
3-1, a thousand times deserved for Plogastel Saint-Germain who did not miss their appointment with history. The Bigoudens will play the 4th round of the Coupe de France and with the unfortunate defeat of Plougonvelin on Uzel Merléac, will be the little thumbs of Finistère in this 5th round. For Michel Poulhazan, who arrived at the club last season, for his assistant Patrick Moreau, for Michel Renault, the ex-president, the joy was inevitably immense. Plogastel reaches this milestone of the 4th round for the first time.
