It is a Périgourdin lost in the capital region and which has managed to keep the pride of its roots. Pierre, policeman in Île-de-France but originally from Dordogne, did not hesitate to pose in front of the entrance to the Palace of Versailles this Saturday morning to encourage Bergerac Périgord FC who plays Wednesday, February 9 in the quarter-finals of the Coupe de France against FC Versailles: “There were a lot of people, it was a sunny Saturday! It’s to confuse the colleagues here a little, but there are passers-by who saw my scarf and shouted: Go Bergerac!”.
The young man was assigned to Saint-Germain-en-Laye, just next to Versailles in the Yvelines, after leaving the Périgueux police academy. He was also at the time licensed at Trélissac. He now plays football in the Paris region, but he made the trip to see Bergerac win against Créteil then Saint-Etienne. He will still be there on Wednesday for the match against Versailles.
