Winners of AF Virois (National 3) this Wednesday in the Coupe de France (3-0), SM Caen (Ligue 2) fielded a suspended player.

The match between AF Virois and SM Caen continues to make headlines. Postponed twice – once due to an unauthorized stand and once due to an impassable pitch – this eighth round match of the Coupe de France could have an unexpected outcome. Self the qualified Ligue 2 resident in his Michel-D’Ornano hole (3-0), it is his opponent who should face FC Nantes in early January.

As revealed Western France this morning, information that we have verified, Dieudonné Gaucho Debohi entered the game replacing Noa Lebreton at 13and minute. However, the 21-year-old defender was suspended for this match after he picked up three bookings with the reserve team in National 2 (17 September, 5 and 26 November). A suspension that went into effect on December 5 at midnight.

However, if he served well in the National 2, on December 10 in Châteaubriant (1-1), this is not the case for the pennant team who have not played a single match in December apart from this Wednesday evening. . No reservations were placed on the match sheet. But the AF Virois club confirmed to us that they would seize the French Football Federation. And if the suspension is confirmed, Cédric Hoarau and his players will receive FC Nantes on 7 or 8 January.
