Tours FC Penalized After Match Cancellation in Coupe de France
The French Football Federation’s competition commission has ruled that Tours FC must forfeit their match against Lorient due to inadequate organization for the Coupe de France fixture. This decision follows the match’s cancellation on December 23, attributed to the club’s failure to ensure public safety at the event. Coach Bryan Bergougnoux expressed anger and disappointment for his players and fans. The club now faces questions about reimbursing ticket holders and awaits a court decision on potential liquidation.
