Coupe de France: big disappointment for Paris FC eliminated by Annecy on penalties

2023-02-08T20:02:33.167Z


After snatching the equalizer in the 90th minute (1-1), Paris FC missed three shots on goal this Wednesday evening in Charléty. He bows to


Eighth shooter in the penalty shootout, Arnold Temanfo, the defender of Annecy, deceives Vincent Demarconnay.

After keeping his team afloat, which missed three attempts (Kebbal, Mandouki, Chergui), the Paris FC goalkeeper must bow.

It's finish.

The match for history turned into new disillusionment for Paris FC.

One more in this season where he has accumulated so much as well as disappointing performances.

Forty later, the Parisian club will not experience a new quarter-final.

The Coupe de France could have saved the season.

From now on, it promises to be long, very long… Even if it will be necessary to save the essentials by already ensuring the maintenance in Ligue 2.

It becomes a tiresome refrain but we can still regret the state of Charléty's lawn.

Just shameful... Even in Vierzon, the playing conditions were better.

After the reception of Amiens on Saturday (the 4th match in 11 days), a plate of 3,000 m2 of lawn will be changed.

A simple plaster on a wooden leg.

We will have to wait until the end of the season for real decisions to be made, certainly with the installation of a hybrid lawn.

A monstrous Khalid Boutaïb

In this L2 duel, between two teams that faced each other on January 13 (2-0 for FCA), it was Annecy, however deprived of five holders, who entered the match the fastest.

Vincent Demarconnay had to be decisive on a strike from Shamal (13th) and ahead of Rocchi (17th).

Despite the efforts of Alimami Gory, who multiplied the overflows and the races, Paris FC really struggled to sublimate despite the stakes.

The latest recruit, Sekou Sanogo, who had his second start in a row, even though he had not played in an official match for more than two months with Red Star Belgrade, was released quickly through injury (18th).

Same fate for Gory, the best Parisian, hit in the shoulder (62nd).

Just after, Annecy opened the scoring with a very generous penalty converted by Kevin Farade (0-1, 68th), from the Paris region (PSG, Entente SSG, Bobigny, Créteil).

But the ghost Khalid Boutaïb, who was making his big comeback after his cruciate ligament rupture in May, was monstrous.

After making a nice deflection for Lebobang Phiri, who found the post (88th), the 35-year-old striker equalized (1-1, 90th).

Boutaïb changed the end of the match and finally thrilled the public of Charléty who only asked for that.

But the penalty shootout, even if it was breathtaking (the teams separated on the eighth shot), was fatal to Paris FC.
