The Moselle forces were put through the mill on the 7the turn for boys, first for girls. There remain three hopes to go further: US Thionville Lusitanos, Sarreguemines FC and the girls of CSO Amnéville.

Thionville Lusitanos against the Annecy pros
The most capped (N3) of the two teams (boys) still in the running. Not for long ? Maybe. The North Mosellans return from Nouméa with a 4-0 victory in their pocket and “full of memories in mind”, confirms President François Ventrici. But on December 10, it’s time for a Ligue 2 team, Annecy. Unheard of since the 1990s, but “we have the team to achieve this feat”.
Best defense and second best attack in his group: almost the bare minimum to come up against a team living three floors above. “We know that they will take us seriously, but we also know that, unconsciously, we are less motivated when we play an inferior team. And vice versa…” And the Haut-Savoyards struggled in the last round, narrowly winning 2-1 against Fos-sur-Mer, a team from… National 3.
Biesheim on the Sarreguemines menu
Roudy Keller, the president of the Moselle-Est winning machine, leader of his R1 group, knows the opponent of 8 by heart e round. “Biesheim, I saw them play fifteen or twenty times. I know the specificities of each player,” assures the former Sarre-Union player. If he lets go of the classic “in one match, anything is possible”, it’s also because he knows that his coach proved it years ago. “Djamel Ferdjani led an R2 team (CS Neuhof) , and we were in CFA. They beat us, at 7e Coupe de France round. That day I knew I would want to work with him. » Biesheim, 2e of its pool in N2, of course offers “very high level”. But at this stage of the competition, there is no question for Sarreguemines FC of choosing between cup and championship. “Do not aim for 32es final, where we can draw PSG… you would have to be stupid! », smiles the president.
CSO Amnéville will face Auxerre
The Messines fell against CA Paris 14 while the Amnévilloises took the mousehole option, against Troyes. The CSOA offers itself a second federal round of the national cup and will have to cross swords with Auxerre. Good news for them: behind the evocative name is ultimately “just” an R1. ” I was surprised. I admit that I do not know their level and we are going to train blindly, which is quite difficult,” says coach David Regis. The Icaunaises are playing at the top of the table but “the main opponent of my players will be themselves. They have to play their game: offensive, keeping the ball! » By relying on attacker Corplet, midfielder Benourhazi and goalkeeper Ollio, “everything is doable”. Already with this gift: “A cross-section course unites a team, with all the emotions we go through. »
