AS Cannes knock Montpellier out of Coupe de France

Fourth-tier side AS Cannes sensationally knock Montpellier HSC of Ligue 1 out of the Coupe de France in extra time.

Fourth-tier side AS Cannes have upset Montpellier HSC in the last 16 of the Coupe de France at Stade Pierre de Coubertin.

Belkacem Zobiri scored the winning goal just one minute before extra time was due to end, preventing a penalty shootout and dumping the Ligue 1 side out of the competition.

In the extra period, AC Milan loanee M'Baye Niang was brought down in the area to give Montpellier a chance to break the deadlock.

Niang stepped up but struck the foot of the post with his spot kick as Cannes survived.

It looked as if the game would be heading for penalties until the 119th minute when Zobiri scored the winning goal to cause a big upset against the two-time champions.
