Coupe de France 1984/85

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The competition for the Coupe de France in the 1984/85 season was the 68th playout of the French football cup for men's teams. That year, 3,983 clubs registered, including some from overseas French possessions .

The defending champion was FC Metz , which was eliminated in the round of 32 this year. The winner of the trophy was the Association Sportive de Monaco . This was her fourth cup win in the sixth finals since 1960 ; the ASM had also reached the final last year. Your opponent Paris Saint-Germain FC was in a final for the third time after 1982 and 1983 and lost one for the first time.

There was little to gain for lower-class teams at this event. Of the amateur teams, only three third division teams and a fifth-class eleven with AS Mantes survived the thirty-second finals. In the following round, however, none of them prevailed. After all, five of the 16 teams in the second round came from the second division , of which AS Saint-Étienne even made it into the quarter-finals. But after the “Greens” - “les verts” is the most common name for this club - had already thrown two top division clubs out of the running ( FC Tours and RC Lens ), the road to success of the team that played around French football ended there had dominated for a decade and a half.

After the qualification rounds organized by the regional subdivisions of the regional association FFF , the 20 members of Division 1 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 finals on a neutral spot; if the score was tied after extra time there was a penalty shootout. From the sixteenth to the semifinals, home and return games were played. If both teams scored the same number of goals, the one who scored more goals on the opponent's pitch won. If it was the same here, the second leg was first extended and then - if necessary - a penalty shoot-out was carried out.
