On June 21, 2025, the Albert-Domec stadium will host a charity meeting between a selection of former professional players from the region and the team of legends from the French international club for the benefit of the “Un jersey pour la vie” association. Players from France 98 should be present, hoping for Zidane. This weekend, the Aude Football District will celebrate its 80th anniversary.
It is a birthday with fanfare that the Aude football District is preparing to celebrate for its 80th anniversary. According to the first information which is starting to leak, as part of this anniversary, a gala match is scheduled for Saturday June 21, at 6 p.m., at the Albert-Domec stadium in Carcassonne. It will pit two prestigious teams against each other. First of all, a selection of former professional players from the region or who have played in professional clubs in the region. We are talking about Narbonnais Ali Benarbia, Laurent Batlles, Nicolas Bieuze but also Daniel Bravo, Vitorino Hilton, Adel Chedli. Other former players will be added to this list in the coming weeks. Facing them, the selection of legends from the French international club, a club chaired by Jean Tigana (European champion in 1984). And there should be something heavy with the presence of certain starters from the world champion French team on an unforgettable evening in July 1998.
With, perhaps, the prospect of seeing Zinedine Zidane set foot on the Domec lawn with his friends Lilian Thuram, Fabien Barthez, Laurent Blanc and company. There is hope. The team of legends wishes to bring together young retirees and the oldest, still strong and performing, in order to honor the blue jersey as in the days of their splendor. His last release was on November 16. She was invited to the 50th anniversary of Montpellier Hérault SC. Under the colors of the legendary French team, many internationals responded to the invitation: Stéphane Porato, Frédéric Piquionne, Éric Carrière, Jérémy Mathieu, Maxime Gonalons, Steve Savidan, Amara Simba, Rod Fanni, Ronald Zubar, Camel Meriem, Loïc Rémy, Jean-Marc Chanelet, Jérémy Ménez, Corentin Martins, Laurent Blanc and Robert Pirès, the two champions of world 98. The proceeds from this gala match will go to the benefit of the association “A jersey for life” which strives to fulfill the dreams of thousands of children affected by the disease.
On the occasion of this anniversary weekend for the Aude football District, June 21, 2025, all the cup finals, from seniors to young people, will take place at Domec for a big football celebration.
