The US Avranches (N1) inherited the Stade Pontivyen (N3) in the draw for the 8th round of the Coupe de France at the Stade de France last night. See you on December 8th or 9th.
Only two days after his qualification without appeal on the lawn of La Chapelle-des-Marais (R3, 0-5), the US Avranches is already fixed on his fate for the 8th round of the Coupe de France. And the lucky winner is the Stade Pontivyen (N3, Morbihan). "I would like to go to Brittany. It plays football and it's always better to go on known ground , " hoped the president of the USA, Gilbert Guerin, a few hours before the draw at the Stade de France last night. On the spot, in Saint-Denis, the wish of the manchois ruler was granted.

Even if they will not evolve in front of their Fenouillère public, the Blues are able, on paper, to reach the 32nd finals scheduled in early January. "I do not know why, but I bet on the Stade Pontivyen, says Guérin. If we played this team ten times, we would beat it nine times. We just hope that the bad does not fall that day. We respect everyone, while being afraid of everyone ... "
"Whatever happens, we have to take what we are offered, says coach Frédéric Reculeau. But it's always better than a trip to Le Havre or whatever. "
Opposed to inferior formations on the hierarchical level since the beginning of the competition, the technician and his Blues can logically see 2019 at Dame Coupe. "I was a winner of a favorable draw, although we can see that there are surprises every turn, warns the coach of the USA . Now, it must be played, whether in Brittany or elsewhere, we must pass. "
Morbihan is in any case warned.
