Overcame 7,000 km and lost 0:12. An incredible defeat in the French Cup

An incredible rout occurred in the French Cup. In the 1/32 finals, Lille faced the modest club Golden Lion.

Interestingly, the visitors traveled nearly seven thousand kilometers to play this match. Golden Lion represents Martinique, an overseas department of France located in the Caribbean Basin.

In this season's French Cup, the club had already progressed through one round but completely failed in the match against Lille. Throughout the game, the guests managed only one shot towards Lille's goal, which posed no real threat. As a result, the match ended in a 12-0 rout. Edon Zhegrova and Jonathan David both scored hat-tricks, and at the end of the match, Lille's players honored the Golden Lion players as they left the field.

After the match, Fonseca emphasized that his team had prepared seriously for this game.

'We had a serious match, that was the main thing. We respected the opponent and the public. It was important to play a match with intensity. The most important thing was to win and progress further. Today we did a lot of good things, pressed high, and created many chances. We were very serious,' - concluded the Portuguese coach.
