Zapping Foot National Coupe de France: Calais, Quevilly, El-Biar, … the greatest exploits of the competition

The Blueberry defender, Castello Lukeba, spoke on the eve of the eagerly awaited semi-final of the 2025 European Espoirs Championship against Germany. Aware of the opposing strike force, he underlined the challenge that awaits his team: “Germany has a big offensive force. I have faced a lot of good attackers since the start of the European championship, it will be a great battle tomorrow (Wednesday).”

A collective defense against German armada

Despite the individual quality of the German attackers, the former Lyonnais Olympic player insists on the collective approach of the Blueberries. “I'm not going to stop it on my own. We are a team: we will attack and defend eleven to get a place in the final,” he said. For Lukeba, the key to success lies above all in the performance of his own camp: “I think that we must first focus on us. If we do what we have to do, there is no reason why it goes wrong.” A clear message of unit and confidence before this shock for a place in the final.
