A women's football team from Loiret has been knocked out of the Coupe de France without playing a single match. The players expressed their disappointment, as they felt they had earned the right to continue in the competition.
According to information published by ici.fr, the club was unable to take to the pitch for its scheduled fixture in the tournament. This situation caused great frustration among the players, who described themselves as "disgusted" by the decision.
For the club's members, this elimination is all the harder to accept because it occurred without any match having taken place. The players hope that this affair will help clarify the rules applied in the competition.
This episode serves as a reminder that the Coupe de France, the oldest football competition in France, remains open to many amateur clubs, which often see it as a unique opportunity to make themselves known. For the Loiret team, the dream therefore ends abruptly, without having been able to play on the pitch.
