Another surprise in the French Cup, the second division team also eliminates

USL Dunkerque, a Ligue 2 team, qualified for the semi-finals of the Coupe de France by winning at Stade Brestois after a stunning performance (2-3).

If the story of AS Cannes inspires admiration (after the French fourth-tier team achieved the unimaginable qualification), that of Dunkerque is no less impressive in the way it achieved this qualification.

After securing a place in the quarter-finals by equalising at the end of extra time against Lille – then after a penalty that was also stunning – the French second division team this time overturned a two-goal deficit at Brest to go from 2-0 to 2-3.

Opa Sangante was the hero with two goals between the 81st and 85th minutes after Sasso had reduced the difference to 2-1 in the 66th minute.
