Penultimate representative from Overseas, the Golden Lion suffered a heavy defeat in Lille (11-0) in the 32nd final of the Coupe de France.
It’s one of those confrontations that always gives the Coupe de France its charm. The Golden Lion, penultimate representative of the Overseas Territories in the Coupe de France (with CS Moulien, beaten at Romorantin), traveled to Lille, for what was one of the 32nd finals the more unbalanced.
Residents of R1 (or its equivalent), the Martinicans faced one of the best teams in Ligue 1, and Losc had no remorse in inflicting a historic correction on their opponent: 12-0, the biggest victory in the club.
Hat-trick for Zhegrova and David
Paulo Fonseca had lined up his typical team, or almost, and the Mastiffs made the difference in the first period with doubles for Yusuf Yazici (11th, 45th) and Jonathan David (25th, 37th), and a hat-trick for the will-o’-the-wisp Edon Zhegrova (33rd, 41st, 42nd).
In the second half, Tiago Santos (57th) took part in the party, Hakon Arnar Haraldsson also scored his double (64th sp, 78th) then Jonathan David scored the hat-trick goal for him (75th). It was the young Amine Messoussa who closed the festival at the end of the match (90th).
12 – Winner of the Golden Lion (12-0), Lille signed the greatest success in its TCC history. The Dogues also equal the largest victory by a club in the Coupe de France from the 32nd round since the post-war period (12-0 for Valenciennes v Papeete in February 1979).
