Coupe de France: “The players are fabulous”, rejoices the Rouen coach. “These are the best emotions,” he said after his team qualified on penalties (1-1, 6 shots on goal to 5) against a disappointing Monaco.
In the quarter-final, Rouen will host a team that is less strong on paper, Valenciennes, the current bottom of Ligue 2 with only two victories in 23 days. ‘For me, it will be the hardest match because we have just beaten two Ligue 1s, so everyone will perhaps see us as favorites,’ he warned.
