A Coupe de France match rescheduled for a bizarre reason 🤯 | OneFootball

The magic of the Coupe de France.

This Friday evening, Reims faced Iris Club de Croix in the Round of 64 of the Coupe de France.

Originally, this match was supposed to be played on Saturday at 3:30 PM, but it was moved forward for a completely improbable reason.

As revealed by beIN Sports, Hugo Robert, captain of the National 3 club, is getting married... on Saturday at 3:30 PM.

This timing is even more problematic since he invited almost his entire team to his wedding and one of his teammates is none other than his best man.

To address this issue, discussions with Troyes and Marcq-en-Baroeul, who are set to face each other on the same field, took place and were successful.

The two matches were thus swapped in the schedule. The match between Iris Club de Croix and Reims was moved to this Friday, while ESTAC will face the R1 club on Saturday at 3:30 PM.

All's well that ends (almost) well for Hugo Robert, who was finally able to play his match against the Ligue 2 team... before being sent off just before halftime. Unfortunately for him, his team lost with a score of 0-4.
