no feat for Vitré against Nantes, Bordeaux too close against Brest … The recap of the round of 16

0

Stade Brestois, FC Nantes, Toulouse and FC Versailles join Nice, automatically qualified for the knockout stages of the Coupe de France after the exclusion of Paris FC and Olympique Lyonnais due to incidents at the stadium Charlety. The Bretons had Bordeaux while Nantes and Toulouse won, Sunday January 2, against fans of AS Vitré and AS Cannes.

Bordeaux youth too right in the face of Brest

With 21 cases of Covid-19 within its workforce, Bordeaux presented a rejuvenated team against Stade Brestois on the Bretons’ lawn. Five players celebrated their first professional start, including goalkeeper Davy Rouyard, who delivered a great performance. The 22-year-old goalkeeper repelled many assaults from Brest but gave in on the penalty shot by Steve Mounié in the 35th minute, and on that shot by Romain Faivre, a panenka, in the 81st minute. Jérémy Le Douaron sealed his victory in added time. The Brestois therefore win 3-0 and join the round of 16.

Cannes does not repeat the feat

Under the sun of the Croisette, the Cannois dreamed of a better scenario after having eliminated Rodez then Dijon, two Ligue 2 clubs. But despite a good fighting spirit and several opportunities, the residents of the fifth division did not manage to overthrow Toulouse. After delaying the deadline, they conceded a goal scored by Rafael Ratao in the 52nd minute. The Brazilian is the author of the only goal of the meeting but then came out injured, like Brecht Dejaegere. Bad news for TFC, vying for the rise in Ligue 1.

Nantes logically wins against AS Vitré, Versailles eliminates La Roche Vendée Foot

At the Beaujoire stadium, FC Nantes logically eliminated AS Vitré, a fourth division club (2-0). Despite the absence of some executives at rest, positive for Covid-19, or parties to compete in the African Cup of Nations, the Canaries dominated the residents of National 2 thanks to goals from Ludovic Blas and Willem Geubbels, his first under the Nantes jersey.

At the same time, and while there was only one division between the two teams, FC Versailles (N2) easily disposed of Roche Vendée Foot (N3), with a score of 4- 0, thanks to a double from Christopher Ibayi, a superb volley from Makan Traoré, and a goal from Waly Diouf.
