“Bordeaux” enters the French Cup after defeating “Sannois” on penalties

Sannois opened the scoring in the 17th minute thanks to Sek Baraja, but Bordeaux restored parity in the second half through Danylo Ignatenko’s 66th-minute strike.

In the 90th minute, the match went into extra time, and penalties were also needed.

Kissi and El Hemiri missed Sannois’ first two shots, and Alexi Pitu, transferred from Farul Constanta, converted the decisive penalty.

Pitu played all 120 minutes for Bordeaux.
