Coupe de France (7th round). Milizac – Dinan-Léhon, this Saturday (4:30 p.m.)
For several seasons, Milizac has monopolized the first places in N3. A rare continuity in this championship whose level is constantly rising. Dinan-Léhon, the opponent of the Finistériens this Saturday, won the cup towards N2 during the 2022-2023 season.
As a symbol, it was already against Dinan-Léhon that Milizac had failed in the 7th round in 2021, on penalties, in a stadium emptied by the precautions linked to the Covid-19 pandemic. Two years earlier, on the Guichen pitch, when Milizac was still in R1, the 8th round had already been denied to Yohann Boulic’s players.
This Saturday, there will be a lot of people and it will be in Pen Ar Guear. “Management has thought about a schedule where we can have as many people as possible, I hope that we will have people beyond Milizac to push us. And above all, I really expect supporters. We will need to get help from the public” asks the Milizaco coach.
“There is nothing like it to highlight a club”
It is obviously a big meeting for the neighboring club of Brest, which, a bit like its big partner, does not have, until now, the Coupe de France DNA but it is the opportunity to remedy and thus benefit from the popularity of the competition. “There is nothing like it to shine a light on a club. Plabennec was built with the Cup. The championship is vital but the Cup offers great moments for everyone when you go a little far in the competition” enthuses President Bernard Segalen, who hopes to see his colors invited to the party.
It is true that the conditions are suitable.
The only representative of the department to play at home (Concarneau is in Saumur), Saint-Pierre Milizac is expecting a lot of people: “There is not a single match in the Brest region and even in the district. We tried to find the best schedule, the weather will be good, it’s an opportunity for us to attract a wider audience in a match that will be 50-50 but I hope we will make history » desires President Segalen who understands how fragile situations in football are but Saint-Pierre Milizac has the opportunity to think bigger this Saturday, we must not deprive ourselves of it.
This Saturday at 4:30 p.m. in Pen Ar Guear
