It was a penalty shootout in life. After all, qualification for the 1/8 finals of the French Cup and, above all, a dream poster against PSG. Players from the country of Kassel, a club in the north of France developing in the R1 (equivalent to the 6th division), did not flinch to eliminate (1-1, 5 tabs to 4) Wasqueal (N2) on Saturday during the late match for the 32nd final.
The draw was held last Sunday evening, both teams already knew their possible opponent in the event of a victory, which is sure to give a special touch to this Nordic derby. N2 players were the first to open the scoring, and in stoppage time they were joined by Zimyak’s header, who invited the players from Kassel to level the score and a penalty shoot-out. And it was defender Kevin Rudent who delivered the decisive blow to his team’s goal.
