French Cup: Lannion-TFC and Monaco-RAF in 32nd!
A Breton N3 for Toulouse, the jackpot for Rodez: the draw for the thirty-second finals of the Lady Cup, still in progress, has just delivered its verdict regarding the only two Occitan clubs in the running. Appointments are thus made on Saturday 7 or Sunday 8 January.
After the reception of AC Ajaccio on Sunday 1uh January at 3 p.m., on behalf of the 17e day of the French Ligue 1 championship, the Toulousains will travel to the Côtes-d’Armor. At a National 3, four divisions below.

The proteges of Philippe Montanier, eighth finalists last season – let’s remember (eliminated 0-1 without glory, of course, at the Stadium by the N2 Versailles), are doing (very) well. Since despite evolving outside [même s’il n’y a pas eu d’inversion du tirage, la boule Lannion est sortie en premier], Tef has stopped four other elite clubs: Lorient, Nantes, Brest and Rennes. As well as L2 Niort and… Bordeaux; derby which would not have lacked salt!
Tonight is the draw for the 32nd finals of @French Cup.

In their Group B, the hierarchically “smallest” opponents were two R1s.
A first for Santini’s Rodez
The jackpot. Change of scenery for the Rouergats, now coached by Didier Santini who, at the start of the evening, was later inducted at the head of the club. As proof: the Rodez AF, which also played off its bases, won the prestigious AS Monaco in Group A which opened the ball.

The Sang et Or, who dreamed of hosting Paris-SG at Paul-Linion, therefore do not have to be disappointed with the draw either. They who could just as well have “fallen” on Marseille, Nice, AC Ajaccio or Montpellier: another derby, what…
