On that evening, the owner of the French Cup was also revealed. It was the "Paris Saint-Germain" club, which had been considered a favorite from the beginning, but Laurent Blanc's pupils celebrated a victory harder than expected.
In the final, the Parisians faced the second league club "Auxerre", so many predicted an easy victory for the winners of "Ligue 1".
However, the only goal that allowed the favorites to triumph was scored in the 65th minute by Edinson Cavani. Gregory van der Wiel provided a precise assist to him.
This was PSG's third trophy this season - apart from the champion's team, they had previously won the "Coupe de la Ligue".
Result:
"Auxerre" 0 - 1 "Paris Saint-Germain"
[0-1] 65' Edinson Cavani
