Coupe de France 1962/63

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The competition for the Coupe de France in the 1962/63 season was the 46th playout of the French football cup for men's teams. This year 1,209 clubs registered.

After the qualification rounds organized by the regional subdivisions of the regional association FFF , the first division clubs also intervened in the thirty-second finals . The defending champion was AS Saint-Étienne , who had been relegated to the second division at the same time as their cup win , and which this year also failed in the round of the last 64 teams. AS Monaco was the winner of the competition . For Monaco it was the second win of this trophy after 1960 and, after the team had also won the division 1 championship, the first doublé in the club's history. Final opponents Olympique Lyon forced the Monegasque into a replay, but had to wait a year before he won his first cup. The most successful amateur club was the third-class AS Brest , which made it into the top eight teams. In this round she was defeated by Sporting Toulon , who was then the only second division in the semi-finals.

The cup pairings were drawn freely in the thirty-second finals on the basis of a rough regional division of the large country into four parts, from then on for each round and basically took place on a neutral spot; the income was shared. If an encounter ended in a draw after extra time, replay games were played until a winner was determined.

Special occurrences

After 1925 , 1943 and 1959 , this was the fourth final that required a replay. After the first encounter, Monaco had secured the championship in Division 1 . In the second edition of the final, Lyon then missed the chance for more when Polak was knocked down from Hernandez with a penalty.

The low attendance figures for both games were due to a sporting and financial crisis that had gripped French football since around 1960 and which affected club football as well as the national team . The last cup final with well over 50,000 spectators took place in 1958 , and it would take until 1971 before at least the 40,000 mark was exceeded again.
