The beautiful story of the evening.
There will be at least one National 3 club in the round of 16 of the Coupe de France this year. Indeed, it’s SU Dives-Cabourg who will take on the role of Petit Poucet after eliminating Le Puy Foot 43, resident of National 2. This is the first time that the Norman club has qualified for this stage of the competition.
The party started from the final whistle with an invasion of the pitch by a few hundred supporters present. An exceptional moment of communion between the team and its audience. Joe Kobo, defensive midfielder, announced that he wanted « Paris Saint-Germain or nothing » in the next round.
Philippe Clément, trainer Rangers from Dives-Cabourg, highlights amateur football and displays its ambitions: « Ce (mardi) evening, it is true amateur football which emerges victorious. It’s a very beautiful story to continue. I believe in it, because the history of the Coupe de France reminds us that N3 beat Ligue 1. It's not pretension, but as it has already been done, why not we »he declared on the microphone of The Team.
Who says we won't have an Espaly-Dives-Cabourg shock in the round of 16?
