The joy of the Entente Feignies Aulnoye FC players (club Facebook)
Resident of National 2, Feignies-Aulnoye could not dream of better with the reception of OL in around twenty days. If the match should be relocated, the Sambre club did not shy away from its pleasure after the draw.
There must have been an explosion of joy when the opponent's name appeared on the television screen. Pulled first, theFeignies-Aulnoye Agreement knew that she was going to host for the 32nd finals of the Coupe de France. Nevertheless, the formation from the north of France secretly hoped to win a Ligue 1, after the PSG et Montpellier in recent years. The northern players were not disappointed since it will be theOL who will come to settle down in the North for a weekend. President Laurent Menez did not hide his joy at being able to rub shoulders with the last finalist of the competition. “It’s heavy, it’s complicated, but I’m happy, because in our group, it was the best team”declared the president in comments reported by the Voice of the North.
A match relocated to Valenciennes?
On cloud nine after this draw, theFeignies-Aulnoye Agreement will now have to work hard to find a stadium suited to the status of theOL. The poster will inevitably attract people and the club will not be able to accommodate in its usual stadium. The reflection has already been launched and logic would dictate that the Stade du Hainaut Valenciennes or this fallback solution. This was the case in December 2021 for the reception of the PSG when the Maubeuge stadium was chosen for the arrival of Montpellier last season in the round of 16. “Feignies, you forget, Maubeuge, that would surprise me, maybe Valenciennes? I have the impression of repeating the same thing every year, but we are happy. Very happy even.” The VAFC playing its 32nd away, the conditions could be met for Hainaut, located 30km away, to host this poster between the Entente Feignies-Aulnoye and OL.
