USL Dunkerque was an unknown second-division French side until this year’s edition of the Coupe de France. However, after eliminating Lille, Auxerre and, finally, Brest, they deserve the label of ‘the serial killers of Ligue 1 slots’.The Ligue 2 outfit made it to the semi-finals following a shocking 3-2 away win on Wednesday night against the Champions League side. What makes this result even more awkward is the fact Dunkerque managed to come from behind after trailing 2-0 in the 60th minute!🚨🇫🇷 𝐎𝐅𝐅𝐈𝐂𝐈𝐀𝐋 | Dunkerque just made it to the semi-final of the Coupe de France by knocking out Ligue 1 side Brest! 😳🏆Huge moment for Dunkerque who are also 3rd in Ligue 2, battling for promotion.

Meanwhile, unlike their recent UCL rival, Paris Saint-Germain couldn’t be bothered by those lower-league contenders, as they stormed to another 7-0 victory. First, it was Brest in the Champions League, and now the time has come for the fourth-tier minnows Briochin. The game was decided during a 17-minute second-half blitzkrieg when the underdogs conceded four goals. Pretty much the same like poor Brest more than a week ago.The recap is here! 📺(Re)live all 7 Parisian goals! ⤵️#SBPSG (0-7) | #CDF pic.twitter.com/hXuxrzCGvh— Paris Saint-Germain (@PSG_English) February 27, 2025 Goncalo Ramos scored a hat-trick, and given the scoreline, Luis Enrique could allow some of his key players a breather as Neves, Hakimi and Kvaratskhelia exited the pitch in preparation for PSG’s upcoming fixtures.COUPE DE FRANCE – QUARTER-FINALTuesday Angers – Reims 3-5 on pen (1-1)/Dieng 90+5 – Nakamura 79/Cannes – Guingamp 3-1 (2-0)/Abbas 23, Goncalves 30, Domingues 69 – Siwe 46/Wednesday Brest – Dunkerque 2-3 (1-0)/Lage 45, Youssouf 59 og – Sasso 65, Sangante 80,84/Briochin – PSG 0-7 (0-2)/Neves 16, Ramos 36,48,58, Doue 55, Mayulu 66, Dembele 85/
