Bergerac definitely loves dramaturgy. After his crazy penalty shootout against Metz in the previous round, the resident of National 2 qualified in the same way against Créteil (0-0, 5-4), in the round of 16 of the Coupe de France. The Périgourdins reach the stage of the round of 16 for the second time in their history, the first since 2017. And it is deserved. In front of a Gaston-Simounet stadium on fire, Erwan Lannuzel's men, more offensive and enterprising (six shots, two on target) made the defense of the Cristoliens a nightmare but came across a Riffi Mandanda of the great days. Finally, mass was given on penalties and it was the unfortunate Kamel Chergui, positioned in fifth shooter, who missed his shot.
🏆 Bergerac takes its place for the eighth!
At the end of the suspense, the @BPFC won the penalty shootout against Créteil!

Enterprising and dangerous Bergerac
But besides the result, the Périgourdins made a very flattering copy in the game. Not hesitating to press their opponent of the day high, the leaders of their group of National 2 could count on a Hicham M'Laab of the great days.
The winger, hard-hitting and provocative, created the best opportunities for himself in this meeting but stumbled on Riffi Mandanda (36th, 88th, 90 + 4).
And Bergerac also shone defensively.
Indeed, the striker of Metz in this Coupe de France has not conceded a single shot on target from the Cristoliens in 90 minutes and has still not conceded a single goal in seven games in this competition.
The draw for the round of 16 will take place on Tuesday.
