The Dynamo Pons17-Avenières38, finalist of the previous edition, could not do anything against the U.S.Groix of the newcomer, enez, who was able to impose his game from the beginning of the match by quickly opening the scoring barely after the first ten minutes. Same scenario on the return from the locker room and, before the hour mark, the matter was settled. The burst of pride of the men of PEPSI will surely not help to swallow the pill of this premature elimination at the end of a very complicated match, but it will perhaps soften the feeling of having been overtaken by a stronger opponent and now favorite for the final victory.

U.S.Groix - Dynamo Pons17-Avenières38: 3-1 (xG: 1.295 – 0.411)

In the other matches...

To everyone's surprise, St doul continued their adventure by qualifying on penalties against FC PVT Maubeuge after a very well-paid 0-0. The Avesnois will find it difficult to accept this elimination as they dominated the proceedings from start to finish but the lack of offensive success - some will probably point more to the clumsiness of the attackers - will have got the better of the hopes of PhilGood and his team who did not shine in the final exercise either by failing in the first and last penalties for an inglorious elimination.

St doul – FC PVT Maubeuge: 0-0 (xG: 0.284 – 2.962) (4 tab to 3)

The CF Correlient of the Iberian Andre Malles also qualified after the penalty shootout in a much tighter match that took time to get going with a late goal from Celta Havana. With three failures in the fateful session, the players of djac890 practically eliminated themselves.

teamouest - Playcom FC: 1-1 (xG: 0.434 – 0.681) (4 tab to 2)

Still no opposition for teamouest who are crushing the patton fc on their turf. It's Janis Kolesov to score four (2nd, 53rd, 76th and 81st) to which we will add the double of Eemil Akonniemi for a stinging 6-0!

FC PVT Maubeuge - Les Tauliers: 0-6 (xG: 0.237 - 1.989)

The FC Soso monopolized the ball and deprived Casteljaloux FC of any opportunity. We didn't see much and we were expecting a penalty shootout to find the winner of the match when Daniel Xuereb, always dashing despite his age, scored the winning goal less than four minutes from the end of the match (86th).

Casteljaloux FC - FC Soso: 0-1 (xG: 0.081 - 0.609)

E.L bubu FC lost heavily at home to Allez Les Verres, another contender for the final victory (0-3). DonQuijote's men did not make it easy and the match was over at the hour mark.

ice88 FC - Vigilante Mayet: 0-3 (xG: 0.513 - 3.77)

Another 0-0 draw and another penalty shootout for the FC CHRIS 13 but, this time, DAMICORA and his team were beaten in the exercise by a faultless performance from the MX We shooters and three saves from the goalkeeper Junior Papin who had already shone in the competition a few seasons ago.

MX We - FC CHRIS 13: 0-0 (xG: 0.929 - 0.539) (5 tab to 2)

The Krigsgaldr of Draconian won logically but with difficulty against ice88 FC and reached the quarter-finals (1-0).

MX We - FC CHRIS 13: 1-0 (xG: 1.566 - 0.365)

If there was a match not to be missed in these quarter-finals, it was the opposition between teamouest and fc soso: twists and turns and goals galore were on the program.
After half an hour, job35 and his players thought they had done the hardest part; The double of D. Xuereb came out of his box: reduction of the score in the 38th minute, to put his team on track and cast doubt on the teamouest defence and three more goals for an epic end to the match (74th, 84th and 89th). The joy of soso76 and his players was commensurate with the dismay of those of job35 who remained stunned for long minutes on the pitch like a stunned boxer who struggles to regain his senses before realizing that he has been sent to the mat for the count.

teamouest - FC Soso: 2-4 (xG: 1.132 – 1.762)

In the other matches...

Logical victory for the U. S.Groix at home against St doul d'Enguerran who will have had a good campaign. This time, the opponent was far too strong to be able to compete; Yavuz Hamdi's goal (70th) put an end to the dream of knocking down the scarecrow and reaching the semi-finals.

U.S.Groix – St doul: 1-0 (xG: 1.897 – 0.06)

Trailing early in the match following the opening score of L. Korvenmaa (9th), MX We had to fight to snatch the victory. Unfortunately for the visitors, their commitment too often on the limit cost them dearly and the dismissal of full-back Uolevi Lammela (63rd) undoubtedly weighed heavily on the final result; Akgöl (72') and Sibbles (81') were able to take advantage of their numerical superiority to turn the tide and allow their teammates to overcome the Krigsgaldr obstacle.

MX We - Krigsgaldr: 2-1 (xG: 1.005 – 0.626)

Andre Malles' CF Correlient advances to the semi-finals after a third penalty shootout in as many games! This time, it was the players of DonQuijote who paid the price. They were the first to take the lead, despite the dismissal of Sampedro (62nd), thanks to a goal from Taiva (73rd) but in the aftermath, the young Brandán Diéguez was able to equalize and prevent his teammates and himself from starting to doubt (78th).

Allez Les Verres - CF Correlient: 1-1 (xG: 0.3 – 0.715) (3 tabs to 5)
