HALF-TIME. For a long time unnoticed, the FC Versailles route in the Coupe de France now arouses a little enthusiasm in the royal city. Over the years, the club has mostly won fans among young people, happy to see their city make sports news. Our report made before the meeting.
HALF-TIME. Well in place and more threatening than Bergerac, Versailles returns to the locker room with a deserved advantage in the score (0-1). The Versailles of the scorer Inza Diarrassouba (14th) were close to the break, twice (31st, 38th). The Yvelinois are forty-five minutes away from a feat!
43′. Versailles offers an ever so solid block. The Yvelinois offer very few spaces to their opponents.
41′. Stat’. This is the third edition in a row that the National 2 manages to slip two representatives in the quarterfinals, a real performance. Which, in fact, involves going through eight stages, since entering the competition in the 4th round, in October.
38′. The parade of Laborde-Turon!! (0-1) We were very close to the break for the Versaillais, with this good Djoco shift for Michel. The winger’s rebounding strike is pushed over his line by the goalkeeper!
37′. The post for Bergerac!… And not finally, on that Bakir cross almost at the corner post, which went off the pitch before coming back with the effect.
34′. Big atmosphere live, and from the world, from the Place du marché Notre-Dame de Versailles!
31′. Djoco as a soloist! (0-1) The goalscorer makes the difference on his own on the right side by outpacing his defender on a long ball. Djoco unleashes a heavy strike from the right that flies a little too high!
29′. Stat’. One of these two boarders of the National Championship 2 will join Calais RUFC (2000), FC Montceau-Bourgogne (2007), US Quevilly (2010) and GFA Rumilly Vallières, the only N2 clubs to have achieved, to date, the feat of reaching the last square of the competition. Bergerac or Versailles will be the fifth.
27′. The opening of the Versailles score in video!
24′. Mr. Brisard delayed as much as possible the release of the first yellow card from his pocket, he is finally forced to brandish it on this big stamp of Durand de Gevigney.
22′. On his aerial shots or his communication, Delaunay is at the moment very reassuring in the Versailles goal. And bossy.
19′. Big big scare in the Versailles area, on a corner opponent bouiiillant. The ball sailed dangerously, Beltran was inches away from getting it back in front of the keeper.
16′. This is the very first goal conceded by Bergerac in this edition of the Coupe de France! Who will put the Yvelinois in the best arrangements for the future.
14′. OOOH VERSAILLES THAT OPENS THE SCORE!!!! (0-1) What a curious goal scored by Diarrassouba, on a placed attack! The Bordeaux midfielder takes his chance in a not simple position, in the left corner of the box. Its wound up (deflected?) surprises with its Laborde-Turon trajectory!!
13′. After a strong-willed start to the match, Versailles suffered more from the game now, Bergerac is gaining confidence. There are always so many contacts in this muscular encounter between Little Thumbs.
10′. Danger is approaching in the Versailles surface! The Périgourds first send a threatening free-kick towards the box, then a no less dangerous cross on the action that follows. The Yvelines defense manages to clear.
8′. A royal welcome! A few Versaillais made the trip to the Dordogne for this historic meeting, played at the Stade Francis-Rongiéras in Périgueux.
6′. M. Brisard whistles a foul by Bergerac in midfield, following a late intervention by Dumai. The card might have been taken out, but the referee remains lenient to start the match.
4′. First electric minutes, we feel a little tension in both camps, which does not help with technical accuracy. The Versaillais are placed high on the field, already forcing the opposing goalkeeper to some risky clearances.
KICK-OFF. Let’s go to Périgueux! (0-0) It was the Versaillais who kicked off this historic duel, which is the charm of the Coupe de France.
18:28. A look at the eleven of the two formations :
18:25. To reach the quarter-finals, Youssef Chibhi’s men, although their performance is remarkable, beat only one top-level team: Toulouse, the leader of L2, in 8th (0-1). Bergerac, victorious of Saint-Étienne at the same time (1-0), will play the first quarter of the French Cup in the history of Périgord football.
18:23. Bergerac and Versailles, two National 2 clubs, are competing for a historic place in the semi-finals of the Coupe de France, in the most important match in their respective history. The Yvelines club, where players like Thierry Henry, Hatem Ben Arfa or Jérôme Rothen passed in their youth, plays outside. He would not have been able to play anyway in his Montbauron stadium, with a capacity of 7,500 spectators, which is, in fact, not approved… because of its proximity to the Palace of Versailles. We explain everything to you below.
18:20. Hello everyone and welcome to our website to follow live commented the meeting between Bergerac (N2) and Versailles (N2), counting for the quarter-finals of the French Cup. Kick-off scheduled at 18:30!
