The AJA and the EAG came close to disillusionment this Saturday during the 7th round of the Coupe de France.

As L2 clubs entered the competition, Auxerre had to go through penalties to overcome US Le Pays du Valois, resident of National 3 (0-0, 2 tab to 4) .

Same thing for Guingamp who made the decision at the end of the suspense in front of Saint-Malo, representative of National 2, not without having equalized in added time of the second act (2-2, 2 tab to 4).

It passed without incident or fear, however, for Caen, Annecy and Quevilly-Rouen, respectively defeating Loos-Plage (0-3), Fos-sur-Mer (1-2) and Montdidier (0-4).
