In the eighth finals of the Coupe de France, Montpellier has won the 16-0 in the Val d'Oise on the lawn of Domont. The Ile-de-France club is playing in the Honor Division, and the gap with one of the best D1 teams has quickly been felt. However, the feat may already be to win the right to receive Montpellier and compete with the best, the time of a Cup match.

The Cup is a competition we love to watch for his improbable exploits, level differences that disappear the time of a match. However, Montpellier had not come to Domont taking the risk of being surprised. On the host side of this eighth-finals, the feat was rather in the fact of having won the right to receive one of the best teams in France (and maybe Europe) on his lawn at the municipal stadium. Domont.

An eighth and then maintaining
Team playing in Division of Honor, Domont is struggling to stay in a pool or behind the two leaders, ES Seize and FF Issy, virtually all teams risk the descent at the end of the season. Until the end, Domont will have to fight to secure his place in the hen Ile de la DH, after being promoted last season.

Difficulties in the league, while to reach the eighth-finals have notably eliminated the Seventh (shot-at-goal) SS, second of DH, in the same hen as Domont and who did not lose a single championship game this season. Confrontations against DH teams that allowed Domont to make his way up to eighth and to be able to receive Montpellier.

This is not the first time Domont has reached this level of competition. Domont was already present at the first edition of the Challenge de France (now Coupe de France) and the club had already reached the round of 16. But to welcome a team of D1, it was a first.

The difference in level between the two teams was felt from the first seconds of play. If Jean-Louis Saez, had turned to some positions, many Herault holders had been aligned input. From the first minute, Valérie Gauvin alerts Delphine Guedet on a header that finally passes to the left of the goal Ile. But three minutes later, Lindsey Thomas opened the scoring for Montpellier. A Virginia Torrecilla ball over the defense finds her teammate on the edge of the offside and faces the goalkeeper and scores with a flat cross (4th).

Domont blows the ball early in the match
The domination of Montpellier is concretized again in the 12th minute. This time, it's Janyce Cayman who scores. Moments earlier, the Belgian striker came up against Delphine Guedet. But on the corner that follows, the defense domontoise fails to clear and Lindsey Thomas can slip the ball to his teammate at the edge of the area that then places a cross shot that ends in the right corner of the nets.

Three minutes later, Janyce Cayman is again at the conclusion on an action initiated by Sakina Karchaoui who hit the ball right foot and then center to Janyce Cayman after leaning with Valerie Gauvin. Janyce Cayman then concluded with a header (15th). The goals are linked, and if Delphine manages to capture the head of Marine Haupais (with the help of the post), she must bow again to Lindsey Thomas who takes a center Genessee Daughetee (20th). Two minutes later it was Lindsey Le Bihan's turn to open his counter, also part of the back of the central defense (22nd).

Five and then finally seven Montpellier goals before the break with a new goal of Le Bihan at the half-hour on a free-kick right side that crosses the opposing six meters and ends his race in the nets opposite side (30th). The seventh is the work of Valérie Gauvin who scores with a header from the right (35th).

For Domont, each incursion into the opposing side was accompanied by encouragement from the supporters present. A few hundred spectators present, and a tribune full for the occasion even if the magnitude of the score has calmed somewhat the atmosphere. At the forefront of the attack from Domonto, Ophélie Dabé attempted some raids, trying to resist the return of defenders Herault. Often alone, his accelerations are rarely reached to the surface despite undeniable qualities of the ball.

A strike before the break
The first strike of the match for Domont comes just before the break on a Macoura Diabaté free-kick that misses the goals of Solène Durand. This gap at the break allows Jean-Louis Saez to make three changes as soon as the locker room returns with the entries of Marie-Charlotte Léger, Stina Blackstenius and Nérilia Mondésir, 18 year old Haitian arrived this winter in the Hérault. Valerie Gauvin, Janyce Cayman and Lindsey Thomas are sent off, but the goals continue to flow for Montpellier.

Paralyzed by the event and perhaps by the turn of the game, the players of Domont have struggled to get out of the vise montpelliérain. It is first Clarisse Le Bihan that aggravates the mark in the 47th minute, following a corner of Montpellier. The attacker tricolor will register four goals in this meeting with a last goal in the 53rd minute.

Substitute entries to mark
A quadrupled for Le Bihan but also for Stina Blackstenius. The Swedish striker scored her first goal in the 54th minute, well served in depth. She scored her second goal in the 65th minute, before adding a third in the 78th minute served on a plateau by Marie-Charlotte Léger. She scored her last goal in the 80th minute, following another acceleration by Sakina Karchaoui.

Marie-Charlotte Léger also scored a hat-trick in this encounter. From the 50th minute, she resumed a center Genessee Daughetee. She then scored two goals in the last fifteen minutes, first on a beautiful volley in the 77th minute on a long balloon Marine Haupais before closing the mark of the meeting in the 85th minute.

Sixteen total goals in this meeting, a heavy addition for Domont who will be entitled to a guard of honor at the exit of the field. A difficult match for the home fans, but which will probably have served to discover some of the best players in the championship of France, like Sakina Karchaoui who was unanimous in the municipal stadium of Domont, and perhaps who knows, to arouse some vocations.
