The step was too high.
Much too high.
At the final whistle, the players of FC Marcoussis Nozay La Ville du Bois (MN-VDB) quickly return, head down, to the locker room.
The Vierzonnais, wide winners (0-6), make a guard of honor and applaud their opponents who experienced an ordeal this Sunday afternoon during the 8th round of the Coupe de France.
The dream of an incredible 32nd final of the Coupe de France against an L1 team quickly flew away this Sunday at the Pierre Camou stadium.
The 5 divisions difference quickly made itself felt between Petit Poucet of the MN-VDB, which plays at the first departmental level of the Essonne district (D1) and Vierzon (N2, 4th division).
Courageous, the Essonne team held the shock for a quarter of an hour thanks in particular to the parades of their young goalkeeper Gabin Bergognon before cracking twice in 6 minutes and then conceding 4 additional goals.
“We feel a great sense of bitterness.
We wanted to start the match well and we made 4 individual errors which cost us the first four goals, regrets midfielder William Brouillard.
It was hard to come back on the pitch in the second half when we were trailing 4-0 but we were lucky to be supported by an exceptional public.
They set the fire.
It was the first time I played in front of so many people.
The 700 spectators were just waiting for a small spark to ignite.
But, the Essonnians failed to light it on the ground.
Despite the magnitude of the score, the Coupe de France adventure started last June will remain historic for the MN-VDB.
The Essonne club born in 2011 from the merger between AS Marcoussis and FC Saint-Eloi (the club named after a wood straddling the two towns of Nozay and La Ville-du-Bois) won eight matches cut this season to get there.
“It's hard to concede 6 goals, blows the young (17) goalkeeper Gabin Bergognon, student in BUT (university bachelor of technology) marketing technique.
We know that with hindsight our adventure will remain beautiful.
We entered the history of the club.
I will now go home and do my homework for tomorrow.
“By his side, the left side wanted to retain the positive and project himself into the future because the club occupies a less than stellar second to last place in the standings (one victory and 4 defeats) in the D1 championship of the Essonne district.
“We would have liked to do better but we managed to bring together a lot of people, says the one who is a seller in civilian life.
The Cup pumps a lot of energy.
This match will serve us for the future.
This adventure remains magnificent and will remain etched in our memories for a very long time.
