The final four of the Coupe de France has set up a derby for our Parisiennes, as they make the short trip to face Paris FC. A special clash which will take place on Sunday 10 March at 15:00, as both sides battle for a place in the final!
Unlucky in the final last season, Les Rouge et Bleue are determined to return and compete for the trophy again this year, aiming to reclaim it two years after lifting it for the third time in their history.
But before thinking about reclaiming their throne, Jocelyn Prêcheur's players face a Parisian derby! It's PFC, currently 3rd in D1 Arkema, that our Parisiennes will have to get past to secure their place in the final. To reach the semi-finals, Grace Geyoro and her teammates had to overcome Brequigny-Rennes, Saint-Etienne and Le Puy. These were matches that seemed well within their reach on paper, but the Red and Blue managed to win them in brilliant style.
It will be another encounter against PFC, who also featured in this year's Champions League this season, but without achieving the same results as PSG in the competition (qualifying for the quarter-final and who will face Hacken).
An opponent of real quality, who have so far eliminated Bordeaux, Le Havre and Lens, and who stand in the way of the final this Sunday. In the D1 league table, PFC are only 5 points behind our Parisians and with one game in hand... But Jocelyn Prêcheur's players can draw confidence from the last result between the two teams, who faced each other on 17 December at the Stade Charlety on Matchday 11.
A contest from which Les Rouge et Bleue emerged victorious (2-1), thanks to goals from Baltimore and Katoto, following the opening goal by the hosts of the day scored by Thiney. A solid foundation to build upon in this semi-final, which promises, like every derby, to be a classic.
