Soccer. Dirinon tournament: Marseille winner for boys, Lyon for girls
Dirinon Tournament
On the field, the level of play offered by the teams has once again decreased, especially at the technical level. And the girls have nothing to envy to the boys. During the two days of the competition, the show was total to the delight of thousands of spectators. The best French and foreign clubs came and put on a show. A competition that has also led to its share of tears of despair or happiness.
The jubilation was in the camp of the minots of Olympique de Marseille: the Marseille team won in the final ahead of the Spaniards of Real Bétis Seville (1-0). And if the Iberian formation displayed its legitimate disappointment at the final whistle, it had just lost against the opponent certainly the most complete and regular of the whole tournament. Marseille which thus retains its trophy, after its title in 2019.
Disappointment for Breton clubs
The jerseys worn by the Olympic clubs were very visible on the day of the finals. Indeed, among girls, the victory went to Olympique Lyonnais. The Rhône players beat Dijon (1-0). Dijonnaises who did not deserve, far from it. But the winners had more juice under their soles. They therefore follow the list of winners in Montpellier.
For the Breton clubs, the weekend was not very bright. With the exception of Quimper Kerfeunteun, eliminated in the quarter-finals by the Swiss from Etoile Carouge, the other teams have not managed to climb beyond the round of 16.
