Guingamp: like a Christmas feel at Roudourou for the EAG – SM Caen match [En images]

There was a festive air on Sunday evening at Roudourou for the match between EAG and Caen for the last home match counting for the 32nd round of the Coupe de France. The party had started a little early with the call from those in charge of the Kop Rouge to gather at the Campbell's bar to leave together in a procession towards the Roudourou stadium. Because it's Christmas, a sponsor famous for its chicken sandwiches was handing out Santa hats at the entrance to the stadium, all red headwear.

“It’s a bit like my early Christmas present”

“We were given the hats at the entrance,” explained Sarah, Ronan, Nicolas and Rachel, from Saint-Julien, with a smile on their faces. Before they were flocked to EAG, now for the Coupe de France, it’s a sponsor.” “We came as a family to have a good time in the pure Christmas spirit as long as the EAG wins the match,” commented Christelle, Sara, Erwan, Max, Herminie and Sophie, laughing. We want a crushing victory and a final against Rennes.” Sara will admit a little later that she mainly came to admire the handsome Matthis Riou. The final word goes to Jean-Marc, from Rouen and passionate about football. Traveling in the region, he could not resist the attraction of this meeting: “It's a bit of my early Christmas present, it's my 61st match of the year. Saturday, I was in Rouen for the match against Lille. I hope, if my wife allows me, to be able to attend the match against Anderlecht.”
