The Stade Vélodrome, Because there was great confusion at first: because only players from Angoulême took to the field again, many viewers believed that the outsider would have qualified for the Final; individual newspapers, hastily informed by phone about published this even in their spending the next day. A year later, would Angoulême almost spoiled the AS Saint- Étienne to Doublé; after a 1-1 N.V. succeeded Goujon's former club ASSE only in replay to prevail 2-1, and shortly thereafter in addition to winning the championship and the cup.
