Brittany Cup (6th round). Ploudaniel (D1) – Lesneven (R2), Sunday November 15
Relegated to the District at the end of last season, Ploudaniel left the league where he has played regularly since the season (2007-2008), culminating in the DSR during the years (2013-2014) and (2016- 2017) and more recently the R2.
Stuck in the middle of the table in group B of D1, the Ploudanielois are experiencing a sluggish start to the season and after an elimination in the 3rd round of the Coupe de France against Carantec Henvic, Ploudaniel is finding a second wind in the Coupe de Bretagne, a cup in which they have already reached the 8th round in the past.
And after having successively eliminated the reserves of Plabennec, Lanmeur and Plounevez-Lanhouarneau, here they are opposed to neighboring Lesneven for the first time in their history, because if the two clubs have already faced each other ten times in the championship in the past, let it be in DHR, DSR or R2 (5 victories each), they are never faced in the cup whether it is France, Brittany or Departmental Council.
Derbys have always been played in the head
“It’s going to be a great poster, the derbies against Lesneven have always been played in the head. In the past, many of our young people went to the youth teams in Lesneven which played in the league, since then that has changed a lot. We will try to do our best, we believe in it, we have already taken out the Plabennec reserve which plays in R2 while a week before we had lost in the championship against the Plabennec C team, in football everything is possible. » specifies Daniel Martin, former president and secretary of the club.
