The Chartrains can breathe. Forced to go through the penalty shootout after conceding the equalizer in added time (1-1), Laurent Fournier's men snatched their qualification for the 7th round on penalties against Bourges Moulon, Sunday October 27 (5-4).
They were hot. Very hot. While they thought they had missed their chance by conceding the equalizer at the end of added time (1-1), the CCF players finally came out of the penalty shootout as winners, when Wissem Bouhadiche scored the sixth Chartres attempt (4-5). And after Pape Barry, undoubtedly the man of the match, took two shots on goal.

In a match where the chances were legion, only the vision of the goalkeepers and the clumsiness of the attackers left the score unchanged. A long time. But entering the last ten minutes, the match got carried away.
Trap
And it was first of all the CCF which knew how to do well. From the right side, Matthieu Geran sent a cross to the penalty spot which Madior Tall took back at point blank range. And victoriously (0-1, 82'). The qualification was taking shape. Except that barely ten minutes later, at the height of Berruyère domination, Abdoulaye Fofana was roughly trapped by his opposite number Mohamed Bouchou.
Rather than clearing the ball “hot”, the central defender wanted to play it “smart” and let it go out for a corner. But he was letting his foot drag. Penalty for the locals transformed by Petit (1-1, 90+5). And penalty shootout to follow. Or almost.

During this, the CCF lost control when Antoine Bernasque found Renard on his way and allowed the Berruyers to be in front (3-2). But Barry, on the two attempts of Pothin then Mendy, intervened with authority.
Then came the turn of Wissem Bouhadiche, who entered during the match, to carry out the sentence and open the doors to the 7th round for Chartrains. The attacking midfielder did not tremble and deceived Renard, who started on the other side (4-5). The Chartres clan could explode!
