There will be a good atmosphere at the Idonnière. For us, it’s 50/50 ”. On the side of La Roche VF, we are less categorical. « But it is the treasurer of Poiré who must be happy … »

Pouzauges inherits Le Mans

The Pouzaugeais have inherited a big chunk, since they will receive Le Mans, a National team. « It is certain that we would have liked to play a lower level team, to go further … But we receive. It was the wish of the club. Four years ago, Le Mans eliminated us 3-1. It’s revenge… ”

The Herbretais will move to Beaucouzé (R1). For Lilian Bossard: « It’s a 6^e round and there is never an easy draw. Between an R1 at home and a N2, the level is quite tight.  » It will be the same for the Sablais of the FCOC who will receive Châteaubriant (N2). “This is good news for us and therefore a good draw. For the match, anything is possible… ”
