Nancy goalkeeper Baptiste Valette, who stopped the Rennes attempts of Gaëtan Laborde, Mathys Tel and Loïc Bade during the session, sent ASNL to the round of 16.

Last of Ligue 2, the Lorraine, led by Benoît Pedretti, interim coach but already resigned, equalized at the end of the match thanks to a goal near the head of Mickael Biron (78th).

Jérémy Doku had previously unblocked, with a curled shot (58th), the situation for Rennes, often clumsy, like three failures from Serhou Guirassy, ​​including a penalty.

Clermont's disillusionment with the Bastiais (18th in L2) took shape quite quickly.

The Corsicans opened the scoring in a flash from Benjamin Santelli, receiving a long opening (25th) before making the break on a corner thanks to their captain Antony Robic (70th).

Bordeaux decimated and swept away

Less surprising, Bordeaux, decimated by 21 positive cases of Covid-19, was swept away in Brest (3-0) in one of the two posters between Ligue 1 teams this Sunday with the success of Montpellier against Strasbourg, thanks to an instant strike from Mihailo Ristic at 20 meters (20th).

With more than half of their starting team (six players) from the reserve, the Girondins, already not very dashing 17th in Ligue 1, suffered against the entire Brestois.

And the Gironde team with a very youthful face made a mistake after half an hour of play. Tijany Atallah, 18 years old and not the slightest minute disputed with the professionals, intervened late in the box on Romain Faivre ( 35th).

After this first penalty, transformed by Steve Mounié, Timothée Pembélé conceded another, converted from a "panenka" this time by Faivre (81st), author of his 8th goal of the season.

Jérémy Le Douaron increased the score at the very end of the match (90th + 4).

No miracle for Vitré either.

As in the quarterfinals two years ago, the fans of Ille-et-Vilaine who play in National 2 were dominated by Nantes (2-0).

In his garden - since the match has been relocated to Beaujoire - the canary captain of the day Ludovic Blas opened the scoring (25th) with a strike placed at the entrance to the area after a center in one touch from his side Fabio .

Also passer for Willem Geubbels during the break (68th).

History for Versailles

Toulouse, runner-up in Ligue 2, also enforced the hierarchy (1-0) in Cannes (National 3) thanks to a goal from its Brazilian striker Rafael Ratao (52nd), at the conclusion of a tense cross from the Japanese Ado Onaiwu .

The club Zinédine Zidane's debut will not repeat its course of 2014 when it climbed to the quarter-finals.

On the other hand, Versailles (Nationale 2) wide winner (4-0) of La Roche Vendée, resident of the lower division, reached for the first time the knockout stages of the Coupe de France.

The club of Jean-Luc Arribart (general manager) had frozen the score at half-time thanks in particular to a beautiful goal from the ex-side of the reserve of PSG Makan Traoré: a volley from the outside from the left corner of the surface.

Another club of the fourth division, Bergerac finds the eighth as in 2017 after eliminating Créteil, team of National 1 (0-0, 5 tab to 4).

Marseille closes Sunday's program in the evening (9:00 p.m.) against the fans of Chauvigny, the National 3 team, before the Paris SG's trip to Vannes (N2) on Monday.
