Very quickly led to the score, the Nantes were crushed 5-1 by the Toulouse in the final of the Coupe de France, Saturday, April 29.

90 minutes of play and 66 years after their first coronation, Toulouse wins the Coupe de France. A one-sided final. The people of Toulouse are off to a strong start. From the 4th minute, van den Boomen finds Logan Costa. The defender places an unstoppable header to open the scoring. The Cape Verdean scored his first goal for TFC and scored again six minutes later, 2-0 for Toulouse. Nantes, suffocated, try to react, but Mostafa Mohamed’s strike is repelled in extremis by a Toulouse defender. A lack of luck for FC Nantes and maximum success for the TFC. On a masterful opening of more than 50 meters, Suazo finds Dalinga who, with a dive, lobes Alban Lafont. Dalinga drives the point home, 4-0 in the 31st minute of play.

A penalty for honor

We have to wait until the second half to see a goal from FC Nantes. Ludovic Blas saves the honor from the penalty spot in the 75th minute. But the people of Toulouse are not satisfied. On a free kick poorly cleared by the Nantes defense, the ball returns to Aboukhlal, who sends a mine under the bar of Lafont. 5-1 final score. The TFC players exult and add the Coupe de France to their list.
