A loyal supporter of OGC Nice will travel to Île-de-France to support his beloved club for the French Cup, a historic competition for French football, but above all the goal of coach Christophe Galtier.
Beloved by Nice supporters, the eagle of OGC Nice wishes to conquer the Parisian capital for the French Cup match. All the Nice supporters are calling for it, for this decisive match for the Nice club. It is an emblem of the Gym that has, for several years, defined the moments of the club and its loyal supporters. This female eagle named Mèfi is present for every OGC Nice match, flying over the stadium to encourage the players.
Jean Philippe Roman, falconer at OGC Nice, spoke about this on BFM Nice, Côte d’Azur and said, “For the first matches, we spent two weeks and now as soon as she arrives here, she screams, she marks her territory.” The club’s fans are convinced that the Eagle can bring them luck. Thus, the people of Nice are ready to do anything for their club to emerge victorious from the competition.
It is important to remember that OGC Nice’s last victory in the French Cup was on May 10, 1997. Mèfi will, however, have to face strong opponents and a Nantes crowd also determined to support their players until the last minute.
