Aubusson wins its ninth Creuse Football Cup

And 9 for Aubusson! The players of the Entente du Football Aubussonnais won the final of the Coupe de la Creuse football against Guéret, at the end of a match full of twists and turns. Guéret, who played on his home ground of Cher du Prat, opened the scoring thanks to Marquès (1-0, 63rd). But at the end of the match, Guérétois goalkeeper Evan Pierre-Manceau kept the ball in his hands too long. The referee whistled an indirect free kick, which Nury took care of (1-1, 87th). The two teams, exhausted, waited for the penalties to decide between them. And in this little game, Aubusson and his goalkeeper Anthony Guillot, author of two saves, won, in front of a large audience (around 700 people). For Aubussonit is the apotheosis of a wonderful season, which saw him move up to Regional 2 and therefore win the Coupe de la Creuse.
