Just a little more effort.
Only two laps to go to enjoy the thrills of an epic in the Coupe de France, at the national level.
For now, the games are limited to the Paris region for the last 36 survivors, pending the entry of Paris FC (Ligue 2) in the 8th round and PSG in the 32nd finals.
The poster at the Michel Hidalgo stadium
Out of the 18 matches of this 5th round, the most beautiful poster will take place this Saturday.
At 5 pm, Entente SSG and Lusitanos Saint-Maur will open the weekend with this clash between National 2 teams. A shock or rather a reunion for two teams that have already crossed in the championship on September 26 with a large victory (3-0) for the Lusitanians, thanks to goals from Bruno Goncalves Fernandes, Issa Niakaté and Patrick Etshimi.
A supremacy which is also materialized in the standings since the Val-de-Marnais are 4th while the players of Didier Caignard are good last.
In the Cup, everything can be reversed, especially since the meeting will take place this time in Val-d'Oise at the Michel Hidalgo stadium in Saint-Gratien.
The big ones under pressure
For their entry into the running, the Red Star and Créteil, the two National teams, will be under pressure.
As for the Cristoliens, all haloed with a beautiful victory (2-0) Thursday against SC Bastia thanks to a double from the indestructible Abdelmalek Mokdad (59th, 69th), we must quickly come back to earth with a trip to the Hauts -de-Seine, in Suresnes, resident of Régional 2. At Red Star, spirits are not yet turned towards Le Mée (R1).
Thursday, the positive case with Covid-19 of a player present on Tuesday in Orleans (1-1) in the league leaves a doubt about the holding of the meeting in Seine-et-Marne.
The little ones dream of a feat
Already author of the most beautiful feat in the previous round, Houilles (Regional 2), who reached the 32nd finals in 2018 against Concarneau (National), winner 0-3, dreams of knocking down another National 2 team. eliminated Paris Atlético, leader in N2, the Yvelinois have Bobigny in their sights.
In the Essonne derby, Paray (R3) will try to swallow the big fish, Sainte-Geneviève (N3).
Finally, the small Thumb of the event, the Noiséenne, modest formation of Departmental 2 (10th division), will challenge for the first time in its history an N3, the US Ivry.
The shock of the extreme will take place at the Salvador-Allende stadium, the lair of the Olympic, the historic club of the city of Noisy-le-Sec.
