Coupe de France 1981/82

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The competition for the Coupe de France in the 1981/82 season was the 65th playout of the French football cup for men's teams. This year 3,179 clubs registered, which is the first time that the 3,000 mark was exceeded. Among them were clubs from the overseas possessions of France , of which the CS Papeete from Tahiti ( French Polynesia ) was even able to qualify for the first national round.

The defending champion was SEC Bastia , who made it to the semi-finals again this year. The winner of the trophy was the Paris Saint-Germain Football Club when it entered the finals for the first time . Final opponent AS Saint-Étienne lost the third of their nine finals this season; ASSE achieved its last victory in 1977 , the last defeat in the previous year . Again, this was not a successful year for lower-class teams. Already in the round of 16, only four second division partners were represented, and with Sporting Toulon only one of them made it through, but was also eliminated in the quarter-finals. Of the amateurs, seven teams had survived the first nationwide round - three third and fourth division teams each, plus a sixth division eleven with US Sanary that could even knock out a first division team - but they all came to an end in the sixteenth finals.

After the qualification rounds organized by the regional subdivisions of the regional association FFF , the 20 first division teams also intervened in the competition from the round of the last 64 teams. The pairings were drawn freely for each round and took place in the thirty-second and semi-finals in a neutral place; if the score was tied after extra time, there was a penalty shoot-out, as in the final. From the sixteenth to the quarter-finals, home and return games were played; Amateur teams initially had home rights. If both teams scored the same number of goals (away goals counted twice), the second leg was first extended and then - if necessary - a penalty shoot-out was also carried out.

Special occurrences

This year's final was the first since the competition began to be decided by a penalty shoot-out; this was initially only intended as a one-year special regulation so that the national team had enough time to prepare for the World Cup finals in Spain .

Paris SG was the seventh club from Paris to win the coupe - and the title went back to the capital for the first time in 33 years . At that time it was won by Racing Paris , whose amateur team, which is now only in third class, qualified for the thirty-second finals just this season.

For three PSG players, however, it was not the first personal victory in the Cup: Boubacar had already won it in 1976 with Olympique Marseille, Bathenay even three times ( 1974 , 1975 , 1977 ) and Rocheteau (also 1977), both with Saint-Étienne.
Referee Vautrot was not a newcomer to the final either: he led his second final after 1979 .
