You have to prepare for a final. On the pitch, but also in the offices. The many logistical aspects of the big event on 7 May were discussed for more than two hours during a meeting at the French Football Federation on Tuesday at midday. Around the table were representatives of the FFF and the two finalist clubs, accompanied by other managers from Nice and Nantes for each sector of activity (sports, security, ticketing, media, etc.). President Rivère also took part.

The kick-off time of the match was eventually brought forward by a quarter of an hour, from 9.15pm to 9pm.

Now that all information has been shared, the technical services of the two clubs and the federation are hard at work. In Nice, meetings are also being held with the supporters' groups.

A joint FFF - OGC NICE - FC NANTES statement detailing all the arrangements will be issued very shortly, once the plan has been definitively validated. It will be completed by the presentation of the offers (transport, pricing, etc.) for Nice supporters.
