The Competition Commission of the Paris-Ile-de-France League decided on Friday. Petit Poucet Marcoussis-Nozay-La Ville du Bois (D1) will face Le Pays du Valois (R1) in the 7th round of the Coupe de France on Sunday 30 October. The technical reserve of JS Suresnes (R2) arrived out of time (it should have been asked on the day of the match and not on Tuesday). “I am very relieved, breathes Arthur Didier, the manager of MNVDB (Marcoussis-Nozay-La Ville). We were afraid of having to replay the match. Now we can concentrate on the preparation and organization of our next round on Sunday October 30 (2 p.m.) at the Stade du Moulin. »
Last Sunday, the meeting of the 6th round of the Paris Cup had tipped over into the irrational during the penalty shootout after a rebound match (3-3). While MNVDB led 4-3 in the series, a Suresnois player rushes for the last attempt of his team. His strike is pushed back by the Essonne goalkeeper Gabin Bergognon on his crossbar. The ball flies more than 5 meters and the referee whistles the end of the game. However, the ball then bounces on the synthetic pitch before… entering the net! When the goalkeeper notices the capricious rebound, he tries to turn around but it is too late.
In the process, the supporters enter the field to congratulate the Essonne players on their qualification. The players of the training club of the world champion N’Golo Kanté immediately go in the direction of the referee to ask him to continue the meeting. But he is inflexible. He whistled. The game is over. A video is then broadcast on social networks. Two days after the meeting, the Hauts-de-Seine club then complained. But she finally arrives too late.
