The 32nd finals of the Coupe de France took place last weekend. Here is "Reactions!" coaches.

Christophe Cattelain (Avenir Club Avignonnais coach): "The Coupe de France allowed us to live a great experience and to offer our public a great team that is the Puy. Far too many differences between a District and a D2. Our young players will have learned from high level players like Safia Benguedoudj. Good luck in Puy for the rest ".

Pascal Grosbois (Condé sur Noireau coach): "A very good match, well-managed players, with two beautiful goals well built. A good preparation for the championship and the next match in Angers. Next turn, we would like to be a D1 style PSG or Thiberville.

Nicolas Carric (Val d'Orge coach): "Always a complicated match after the holidays especially against a team that fought well. The work has been done, a good physical job to prepare the match in Arras next week and without injury is important. Congratulations to the girls.

Sylvain Delgado (TFC coach): "A victory that launches this second part of the season. We have a heart to achieve a beautiful course in section, we continue, it's a good thing for the group. Regarding the draw, I admit that I would like to receive for our audience, and a D1 would be a nice party. But we will take the opponent with pleasure to try to continue our course.

Sébastien Joseph (Rodez coach): "A solid and serious match with a lot of respect for our opponent of the day. A mastery from one end to the other that left no doubt. For the next round again a little we would go very well.

Malika Bousseau (La Roche coach): "A restart match, lack of concatenation. The result was in the last 20 minutes, the difference in level was made at that time.

Samuel Riscagli (Dijon coach): "The girls made the job by qualifying for the round of 16 against a brave team from Troyes. We have no special wish for the next round except play at home! "

Fabrice Garin (St Malo coach): "I am satisfied with the mood, the commitment and the play produced in sequence. But I am as disappointed as the girls because the 2nd goal was avoidable. We missed a bit of chest and lucidity for that. This match shows us that we have made further progress ".

Yvan Charvillat (coach of Clermont): "Our generosity associated with the conditions of difficult game allowed us to reduce a little the gap of initial level but we unfortunately lacked lucidity and aggressiveness at times not to make mistakes that we paid cash. This half-time mid-time goal hurt us so much as my players were tough and respected the game plan. You have to be at 150% and have a bit of luck to hope for something in those games. We can still be satisfied with our performance and continue to learn, Claix deserves his victory and should still spend a few laps without problems.

Thierry Blanchot (Troyes coach): "The logic is respected, the girls did not demerit but we did not have the means today to make them doubt more".

Khadidja Bettahar (ESAP Metz coach): "It was a great party with a very professional and respectful team from Lyon. My team has lived up to my expectations: solidarity and fighting. Special thanks to all the volunteers of the club ».

Michel Catalano (coach of Rouvroy): "We were too limited to hope to qualify. Too many absences Yet it was within our reach. Always the same problem unable to score.

Emmanuel Gros (coach of Nîmes): "A small breath of oxygen, a qualification that will be good morale especially in view of our second period was very interesting. The first half was Marseille, the second half Nîmes and the penalty shootout was favorable. Our wish is to play again at home.

Claude Rioust (Hénin-Beaumont coach): "It's a great satisfaction to be qualified. I wish we were more demanding in certain phases of the game and the content of the game I would have wished greater rigor. But very happy to be the only club in Nord Pas de Calais qualified. My wish for the next round, to receive for the celebration of football to be done at home. Why not Montpellier! "

Gregory Mleko (Yzeure): "The players have done the job and deserve their qualification for the 16th. Against a valiant team from Bourges on an impassable pitch to play football. The hierarchy was respected.

Cynthia Duteil (FC Vendenheim captain): "A good rehearsal match was important to win today to stay on our winning streak despite the winter break. It was not a great match on our part, a match without too much pace, many opportunities but a lack of efficiency in front of goal. Bischheim was well defended, they made it difficult for us but we knew they would come today with real intentions. The victory is there, it is essential, we will retain the qualifying hoping for a good draw for the next round.

Lionel Mack (FC Vendenheim coach): "In the Cup, the key is to qualify. It's done, congratulations to Bischheim for their fighting spirit and their resistance. Congratulations to my daughters for doing the job and allowing the club to continue the adventure. A thought for Tiffany and the Bischheim player who came out on injury.

Alain Le Dour (FC Lorient coach): "Very happy to qualify. A real Cup match with a lot of public. Portet is a good team. A logical qualification. We control more the second half. The girls are to be congratulated. Receive a very big at the Moustoir or spend another round.

Stéphane Arnold (FC Rouen coach): "It was a game of recovery after this truce as for everyone. The girls were serious and respected their opponent. We pass one more round, this will allow us to fill the holes of the calendar with a stimulating competition. This match was a very good preparation before our trip to Merignac next Sunday.
