The final of the Women's French Cup will take place on May 3 in Calais. The match will be played at the Stade de l'Épopée, which has a capacity of 12,000 seats. Calais had already hosted the final ten years ago. At the time, Lyon narrowly beat Montpellier (2-1) to win the cup. This will not be the case this season since Lyon was eliminated by Reims (0-0, 9-10 on the tabs) last Sunday. For their part, the Parisiennes – title holders – are still in the running after an easy victory against the Croix Blanche d'Angers (3-0) on January 12.
Despite Paris' clear domination and a good number of chances, it was necessary to wait until the first half hour passed for the Rouge et Bleu to take the advantage through their captain Paulina Dudek, well served by Sakina Karchaoui (36th, 0-1). American midfielder Korbin Albert (90th + 2, 0-2) and Dutch striker Romée Leuchter (90th + 3, 0-3) then managed to increase the score twice in added time of the second half. In the round of 16, PSG will face Nantes on January 26 at 3 p.m.
