Zapping Foot National Laure Boulleau: “I imagine a sequence where Mbappé talks about a Les Bleues match…”
The dream ends there. This weekend, during the 7th round, the four departmental teams still competing in the Coupe de France were eliminated. With honors, of course! This is the case of RC Labourse (D1), stopped by FC 93 (N2), of Fief Gesté FC (D2), stopped by Monnaie (R1), of AS Guereins Genouilleux (D2), dismissed by Mâcon ( N3), and finally from Saint-Philbert La Réorthe La Jaudonnière. The resident of the third division, in Vendée, will have done what he could against SA Mérignac (R1) after a historic journey. But Tom Thumb now abandons his costume to two other formations.
Coupe de France: the results of the 7th round
Le Touquet and Valence are moving upmarket!
For the eighth round in the second week, there are actually two of them to take on this status. And more precisely two Regional 3 teams: Le Touquet and Valence FC. In addition to their qualification, the two teams created a sensation this weekend. The Pas-de-Calais club took the scalp of the Portuguese from Amiens (Regional 1) on penalties (1-1, 4 tab to 1), while that of the Drôme was paid by Marignane-Gignac (National 2) thanks to a quick goal from Djeto Fabre (6th, 1-0). Le Touquet, which has already reached the round of 32 of the event twice in its history, will now face RC Calais (National 3), when Valence FC will play a prestigious 8th round against the professionals of FC Martigues (League 2).
