OM took care to spare themselves the jolts of a new controversy before their 16th final of the Coupe de France in Granville (National 2) this Friday evening (kick-off at 9:05 pm).
Pointed out in the previous round by the president of Trélissac Fabrice Faure, who had expressed his wrath after the decision of the Olympian leaders not to leave their share of revenue (estimated at 140,000 euros) to lovers of N2, the Marseille club , who qualified with difficulty after the penalty shootout (1-1, 2-4 tab), this time changed his rifle.
The Normans of Granville, who receive at the Michel-d'Ornano stadium in Caen in an enclosure that can accommodate 20,000 spectators, will indeed benefit from the share of revenue allocated to the Marseillais, deduction made of logistics costs (estimated at 65,000 euros for the trip to Trélissac in the 32nd final).
An unwritten tradition but firmly anchored in the spirit of the Coupe de France that the Marseillais decided, this time, to follow to the letter.
