A hat-trick and it’s settled. Here is a summary of Monaco’s victory in Rodez (3-1), this Saturday, in the round of 16 of the Coupe de France. Wissam Ben Yedder first opened the scoring from the penalty spot (1-0, 10th), taking the opportunity to pay tribute to his mentor Azzedine Meguellatti, a figure in Ile-de-France football who died a few days ago. After Stone Mambo’s equalizer (1-1, 21st), the Monegasque number 10 then struck twice (50th, 58th) and guaranteed the Rocher team a quiet end to the match.
To see one of the disappointments of this Saturday afternoon, head to the Loire and the Stade de la Beaujoire. In bad shape in Ligue 1 with four defeats in a row, Nantes did not do better in the Coupe de France. Against Laval (Ligue 2), the Nantes team fell after another insufficient performance. An achievement from Malik Tchokounté (60th) was enough for Laval to advance to the 8th. Already under pressure, Jocelyn Gourvennec finds himself in a very uncomfortable position.
The situation is also catastrophic in Dunkirk. Stuck in 19th place in Ligue 2 and unable to win in the championship since November 11, the Northerners fell on the pitch of Puy Foot (2-1), a team which plays in National 2, in the round of 16 of the French Cup. The Auvergnats notably counted on Issiaka Karamoko, author of a double (13th, 32nd), to ensure their qualification. To make matters worse, Dunkirk’s Aïman Maurer was sent off shortly after the hour mark. Enough to give his team a nightmarish evening, despite Gaëtan Courter’s goal (77th).
Dunkirk is surprised, Brest escapes at the last minute
Runner-up in the Championship, Nice provided the essentials at Matmut Atlantique against Bordeaux (3-2). Evann Guessand (35th) and a double from Morgan Sanson (47th, 60th) sheltered the Aiglons. As for Bordeaux, the achievements of Jérémy Livolant (59th) and Gaétan Weissbeck (76th) were not enough.
Facing Trélissac, Brest could have foundered against the little thumb of National 2. When Benoît Bisson opened the scoring for the locals (1-0, 75th), the Brestois had reason to panic. Fortunately for the Bretons, a penalty from Kenny Lala (1-1, 78th) and a goal from Martin Satriano (2-1, 88th) saved the furniture. In addition to its exemplary season in Ligue 1, Brest will see the 8th of the Coupe de France.
