Yes, the 16th final of the Coupe de France between the club of his city and the great OM will take place in New Aquitaine on the lawn of the Beaublanc stadium in Limoges. “It is true that we are awaiting the final validation from the authorities on Monday, it is also true that during the last discussions, a compromise had to be found concerning security, in particular the number of CRS present on the night of the match near the airport. pregnant“. But that does not call into question the Limougeaud choice.
“The figure of 140 members of the police was mentioned. 70 at the expense of the city of Limoges, 70 at our expense, but we still hope to be able to relax these numbers. There is also the question of prohibiting the Marseille Ultras from traveling to this meeting, the health context … These details will be settled in the coming hours. But the match will be in Haute-Vienne, the federation, the ministry, the prefecture, everyone is working to validate this scenario.“.
