After the dispute examined throughout the day yesterday in the federal commission concerning the reservations made by the club eliminated from Crépy en Valois, the match counting for the 8th round of the Coupe de France between USC Corte (N3) and the Diables Noirs ( R1), initially scheduled for this Tuesday, November 19 (at 8 p.m.) at the Santos-Manfredi stadium, will finally be able to be held and is rescheduled for this evening at 8 p.m.
As a reminder, the Oise Crépy-en-Valois club (R3), which came out on penalties during the previous round this weekend, had claimed that non-compliant documents, in this case medical certificates, would have questioned the validity of certain licenses of players playing under the colors of the Mayotte club.
Reservations which were therefore not retained by the federal authoritiestherefore allowing the Black Devils to continue the adventure and compete in this 8th round, this Wednesday evening (8 p.m.) in Corte.
“It’s a relief because we’ve been preparing for this football festival for a few days, it would have been frustrating not to play, declared Jacques Colombani, president of the USCC. We are very happy to be able to welcome the Mahorais with whom we share 'Isulane' values, but above all the fact of bringing together our families, our friends, all the Cortenais, the students and the Corsicans who love the ball, because it is a great match that awaits us this evening, with obviously the prospect of extending this adventure into the Coupe de France.”
A great match which also risks being disrupted this time by the weather. Rain and strong winds have been in the region since this morning.
