QUARTER FINAL DRAW

The draw for the Quarter Finals has once again thrown up 4 very intriguing ties with the potential for some fantastic Semi Finals depending on who qualifies from each of the Quarter Finals. The standout tie sees Spanish Giants Valencia, who last won the competition in 2004 meet Internazionale, the European Champions in 2010. Manchester City, who, on paper are the favourites for the competition, will meet Christophe Galtier’s Olympique de Marseille who have been in flying form of late. Two teams that will be favouring their chances of progressing from their tie, sees Napoli meet Besiktas in a tie that will be hotly contested, whilst Athletic Bilbao will entertain Olympiakos over two legs in a tie where either side will fancy their chances.

COUPE DE FRANCE QUARTER FINAL UPDATE & SEMI FINAL DRAW

COUPE DE FRANCE SEMI FINAL DRAW

The tie of the round in the Semi Final draw is by far the game at the Stade Velodrome as Olympique de Marseille will host Paris Saint-Germain in a repeat of this seasons Coupe de la Ligue Quarter Final. Both sides represent the last two winners of the competition and are likely to make up the top two in Ligue 1 this season as both are hotly competing for the title. The winner of course will be taking on the winner of the second Semi Final, as FC Lorient host Troyes AC. FC Lorient beat Guingamp in the Quarter Finals, and will be hoping to add Coupe de France glory to a relatively unhappy season where they have battled relegation, and Troyes will be hoping to secure a place in the Final after starting the league season off so well before slipping away and fading into mid table obscurity.

Sick to the back teeth of drawing them now! Suppose you have to beat the best to be the best though so would have had to beat them at some point!

It’s been another fantastic month where we’ve scored quite a few goals and been extremely solid at the back, only conceding twice in 6 games. In Ligue 1, we’re level with PSG with 8 games left to play for us, and we have to be confident that they will still slip up in their remaining games. All we can do is keep playing the way we are doing and hopefully we can run the Champions very close to the Title. We might not have been entirely convincing this month but we’ve still got 7 points which is good enough for what we’re wanting to achieve. In the Coupe de France, to be through to the Semi Finals is brilliant and to be meeting PSG again is going to add a lot more spice to the Semi Final but I am still confident we can edge past them at the Velodrome. In the Europa League we’re still going strong and the 5-0 victory over Lyon was one of the best performances I have seen from us this season. Next up for us though is a huge match at the Parc des Princes against PSG where hopefully we can give our title chances a real boost.
