Coupe de France: video of the incredible lob from the AS Cannes midfielder against Guingamp

He will remember it all his life. Facing Guingamp (Ligue 2), AS Cannes , a resident of National 2, is on the verge of achieving the feat and qualifying for the last four of the Coupe de France. After an already magnificent first goal by Chafik Abbas, the Azuréens doubled the lead after half an hour thanks to a phenomenal goal from their striker Cédric Gonçalves.

The 31-year-old Frenchman took the ball in midfield, before attempting a lob from afar. The advanced Guingamp porter Babacar Niasse was deceived from almost 50 meters and committed a handling error at the same time. It was certainly one of the goals of the competition.

"It's a move that I sometimes make in National 2, sometimes in training and today it worked for me. It's exceptional but it's teamwork. At the start it's the goalkeeper who makes the recovery, he's high. We recover at the halfway line, I turn around and I shoot. It's exceptional but it's teamwork," the scorer analyses at half-time.

Dominant in all areas of the game, the Cannes players are 45 minutes away from reaching the semi-finals of the Coupe de France and achieving one of the greatest feats of this 2025 edition. In the other quarter-final of the evening, the two Ligue 1 clubs Angers and Reims are back to back at half-time and have not managed to open the scoring (0-0).
