a National 2 club taken out at home by an N3

Second sensation this Saturday, October 12! After the Entente SSG (National 3) eliminated by a Regional 1 club, it is the turn of a National 2 club to take the door against an N3 team. On its lawn moreover, FC Balagne, currently fifth in Group C in the fourth division, came up against Corte, penultimate in Group J in fifth place. Still without a victory in the league this season, the visitors held off the locals during the 90 regulation minutes (0-0), before showing themselves more skillful on penalties. Balagne leaves, Corte continues his adventure.

Gazélec eliminated

On the Isle of Beauty, another meeting took place this Saturday between two Corsican clubs: that between Sud FC (N3) and Gazélec Ajaccio (R1). And again, everything came down to penalties. Gazélec, who quickly opened the scoring through Pomponi (8th) before being joined before the half-hour mark by the locals (29th), missed the boat during the fatal session (3 tab to 4). Tomorrow, two other matches will conclude the 5th round in Corsica: Gallia Lucciana (N3) – AFA (R1) and Casinca AS (R1) – JS Bonifacio (R2).
