The Aiglons directly enter the 32nd finals for their appearance in the competition. The match will take place on January 6 or 7.
As runner-up to PSG, Francesco Farioli’s squad is having a remarkable, if not exceptional, campaign. With the best defense in Europe, having conceded just 6 goals, the Gym recently secured a home victory against Stade de Reims. The team bounced back following their first defeat in the league, which seemingly did them good. Not qualified for the European Cup this year, Nice will need to get used to playing on multiple fronts, a first under the Farioli era.
The Aiglonnes also in the game
For the second time in their history, the OGC Nice women’s team will reach the French Cup’s round of 32. Victorious over Nîmes MG (5-0) on December 10th, the Red and Blacks secured their qualification with skill. The next round promises to be exciting as it marks the entry of D1 Arkema teams! See you against Strasbourg on January 14.
