Nothing unusual you might think. But the Coupe de France is open (as is the FA Cup in England) to all affiliated clubs. But France having overseas departments clubs around the world may enter. The seventh round has thrown up an away fixture which means the Rodez Aveyron Football club must fly half way round the world to face AS Tefana in Tahiti. We wonder how many supporters will be able to make the trip. If not the match will be transmitted on Facebook by Polynesia TV, but at 2 am our time.

In case you missed the match, Rodez won 3-0. The players and staff are taking two days to recover (on the beach)
