Locminé did not have time to hope on Saturday against Le Mans in the Coupe de France. The Morbihannais will not see the 32nd finals.
Coupe de France (8th round). Le Mans (N) – Locminé (N2): 4-0
Locminé will not see the 32nd finals of the Coupe de France, for its first season in National 2. After having dismissed Sablé (N3) in the previous round, the Morbihannais were taken out by Le Mans, a resident of National who was in bad shape.
Supported by a good hundred supporters who made the trip to the Marie-Marvingt stadium, the Bretons started the match well, cautiously, but with a good dose of commitment.
Luciath's exclusion changed everything
This was without counting the early exclusion of Saint-Co captain Marvin Luciathe. Already warned for a slightly strong tackle (15'), the Breton playmaker was severely punished with a second warning for a high foot (36').
Reduced to ten, Locminé suffered and Le Mans wasted no time in opening the score. After a mix-up in the area, Gueye arrived to regain the ball and deceived Sy with a powerful strike (1-0, 35').
Slightly hit by Quemard, Calodat played well by collapsing in the area. Penalty for Le Mans. Sy started on the right side and touched the ball, but that didn't stop Gueye from doubling the lead just before half-time (2-0, 42').
The second half, one-sided, saw Le Mans score two more goals (Bernardeau, 90'; Vula, 90' + 5).
