French women's football championship 1975/76

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The French women's football championship 1975/76 was the second play of this title after the official recognition of women's football by the French Football Association in 1970. The comparable competitions between the World Wars remained unofficial, especially since they were organized by an all-women sports association.

The 1975/76 championship - there was no top league in France before 1992 - was played in a mixture of group play and knockout mode ; In order to take part in the nationwide final round, the women's teams had to qualify at the regional level beforehand. The winners of this event were the players from Stade Reims , who were able to repeat their success of the previous year .

Preliminary round

The 18 qualified teams were divided into four groups from a regional point of view, in which each club competed against each other on a return leg. Unlike in the previous year, only the respective group winners reached the next round, the semi-finals. In the event of a tie - the two-point rule applied  - the better goal difference was decisive.

In the sources used, no individual results of this round can be found, only the participating women and the group first (shown in bold below):

Semifinals

The semi-finals and final were played in home and away matches , although the away goals rule did not apply at the time.

AS Pusignan - FC Rouen 0: 1 2: 4
