The 108e Edition of the Final of the French Cup will take PSG and the Stade de Reims on May 24 at the Stade de France. This Wednesday, the Champagne club was right from AS Cannes at the Pierre-de-Coubertin stadium (1-2). Not without scares …

At home, the Riviera club sold its skin dearly, after having the scalp of three residents of Ligue 2 (Grenoble, Lorient and Guingamp). This time, walking was too high for representatives of the fourth echelon of French football (National 2). But not that much …

If Ibrahim had soon opened the brand for the Rémois (0-1, 14e), the continuation of the debates has proven to be much more balanced than expected for the all-to-om league costs in League 1. By dint of cheese, the Cannois even managed to return to the score, by the stainless colossus Ndoye (1-1, 52e). In vain…

Reims-PSG, already two draws this season

In the process, the cold realism of the elite club made the difference-Teuma who did not fail to take advantage of the offering of the first goalscorer of the evening to set the record straight (1-2, 58e). The latest comments will have been well at the credit of the locals, without hitting the bull's eye.

The Stade de Reims will play its fourth final of the Coupe de France well in a month and a half. After his victories in 1950 and 1958, and the unhappy outcome of 1977, for the benefit of Saint-Etienne. This season, the Rémois knew how to keep PSG in the championship twice (1-1 on the go to Champagne as back to the Parc des Princes).
