Strasbourg managed to qualify for the round of 16 of the Coupe de France by beating Thaon-les-Vosges, an amateur National 3 club, this Wednesday evening. This victory is particularly significant because several big clubs like Monaco, Marseille, Lyon and Rennes have already been eliminated from the competition.
A Tournament of Surprises

The Next Challenges
With this qualification, Strasbourg is preparing for the round of 16 where they will probably face another Ligue 1 club. Emegha's teammates are determined to continue their good performance this season.
