Dunkerque dismisses Auxerre (1-0)
Dunkirk, 3rd in Ligue 2, created a surprise by winning 1-0 at Auxerre, 8th in Ligue 1, on Sunday at the Abbé-Deschamps stadium, in the round of 32 match of the Coupe de France.
The Dunkirk took a decisive advantage in the first period thanks to the goal scored in the 26th minute by Enzo Balerdi, who took a first shot from the Dutchman Kay Tejan repelled by goalkeeper Tom Negrel, N.3 in the AJA hierarchy.
N.1 goalkeeper, Donovan Léon, was unavailable due to an injury at the end of the match against Lens on December 14, while his replacement Théo de Percin is convalescing.

The Auxerres only had two shots on target in the entire match, none in the first period.
