Final day this Saturday! At the Stade de France, the Stade Rennais and Paris Saint-Germain faced each other in the Coupe de France final. Four-time defending champion, the capital club wanted to retain their title while the Breton team could end 48 years of scarcity in this competition if successful. In Saint-Denis, the Parisians took the match by the right end. On a Neymar corner, Dani Alves opened the scoring with a magnificent volley (13th, 0-1). Superiors, men Thomas Tuchel even doubled the bet thanks to a nice balloon stitched Neymar (21st, 0-2).
Just before the break, however, the unfortunate Kimpembe scored against his side (40th, 1-2). At the break, the PSG was leading 2-1. Returning the locker room, the Rennes were seeking to equalize and Mexer took charge by scoring a header on corner (66th, 2-2). Time passed and the score did not move anymore. Both teams had to go through the overtime. And in those thirty extra minutes, Parisians and Rennes did not score. Kylian Mbappé was also excluded for a sole on Damien Da Silva (119th). Everything was going to be played on penalties and finally, the Stade Rennais was better in this session (6-5) to win the Coupe de France 2018-2019!
