Coupe de France 1988/89

The competition for the Coupe de France in the 1988/89 season was the 72nd playout of the French football cup for men's teams. This year, 5,293 clubs registered, including those from overseas French possessions . With Geldar Kourou from French Guiana , one of these teams even reached the sixteenth finals of the competition for the first time.

The defending champion was FC Metz , which this season already fell in the thirty-second finals - against their final opponent FC Sochaux, of all places . This time the trophy was won by Olympique Marseille , who was successful for the tenth time in his 15th finals. Marseille's last success was already 13 years ago , and until today ( 2008 ) there should not have been an eleventh cup win - nevertheless, the southern French are currently by far the record winners of the competition. In 1989 Olympique also won the championship title and thus the second doublé in the club's history. Final opponents AS Monaco were already in their seventh final, four of which they won (the last time in 1985 ).

The lower-class teams presented themselves at this event with varying degrees of success. Of the amateur teams, only two third (EDS Montluçon and Stade Mont-de-Marsan ) and one fourth division - the above-mentioned club from the South American Kourou  - survived the thirty-second finals. However, none of them made it to the round of the last 16 participants. The teams from Division 2, on the other hand, reached the round of 16 in larger numbers, as in previous years more often, and four of these six second division teams even came under the last eight teams. In particular, the US Orléans , who were already a cup finalist in 1980 , caused a bang with their 4-0 away win at Paris Saint-Germain . In the quarter-finals, however, all remaining second division players were eliminated.

After the qualifying rounds organized by the regional subdivisions of the regional association FFF , the 20 top 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 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 (with away goals counting twice), the second leg was first extended and then - if necessary - a penalty shoot-out was carried out.

Special occurrences

This was one of the finals with the highest number of goals of all time, even if it didn't quite come close to the nine goals from 1957 . For the three-time goalscorer Jean-Pierre Papin - his "triple" was only the second in a final (after Éric Pécout 1979 with FC Nantes ) - it could have been even better if he hadn't had a penalty in the 55th minute Goalkeeper Ettori found his master. Nevertheless, Papin's achievement for President François Mitterrand when handing over the trophy was not only worth the usual handshake, but also a hug and a kiss on the cheek.

Referee Quiniou led his second final after 1986 in 1989 .
