It was Rennes' first final playing under its new emblem and name having achieved the previous honours under the Université Club emblem. This was Guingamp's second appearance in the final, having previously appeared in the 1997 final, losing to Nice on penalties. This was the first final since 1956 in which both finalists, from Brittany, were based in the same region of France (disregarding two finals between Olympique Marseille and AS Monaco FC – the tiny independent Principality of Monaco is surrounded by the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region). Rennes was designated as the home team and wore their original red and black kit. Due to Guingamp having similar colours, both for home and away, they turned out in an all-white kit for the final.http://www.fff.fr/cfra/actu/528875.shtml Echos autour de la finale 7 May 2009 https://web.archive.org/web/20090510082318/http://www.fff.fr/cfra/actu/528875.shtml 10 May 2009 dead dmy-all Route to the final 2008–09 Coupe de France RennesRoundGuingampOpponentH/AResult2008–09 Coupe de FranceOpponentH/AResultBye——Seventh RoundDinardA5–0Bye——Eighth RoundLa VitréenneH1–1 (a.e.t.) 4−1 pen.SochauxA1–0Round of 64Tour d'Auvergne RennesA0–0 (a.e.t.) 5−4 pen.Saint-ÉtienneH2–0Round of 32BrestH2–0 (a.e.t.)LorientH3–0 (a.e.t.)Round of 16Le MansH1–0RodezH2–0Quarter-finalsSedanA3–1GrenobleA1–0Semi-finalsToulouseA2–1 Match report thumb|right|The opening of the 2009 final of Coupe de France at Stade de France, seeing La Garde Républicaine performing Tri Martolod and Bro Gozh ma Zadoù, the former being made famous by Breton musician Alan Stivell and the latter being the hymn of Brittany.The first half of the 91st final of the Coupe de France was relatively equal early on, but it was Guingamp who attacked early on, with striker Eduardo forcing a fingertip save from Nicolas Douchez after he dislodged defender Rod Fanni in the 12th minute. This was followed up by a long-range chance from midfielder Lionel Mathis, which sailed wide left. Rennes was primarily held to taking long-range shots, however Moussa Sow tested Guillaume Gauclin in the 23rd minute, producing a shot which went just wide. The best chance of the first half would come for Guingamp in the 31st minute when Wilson Oruma' cross into the box found an un-marked Richard Soumah, who forced a tremendous save from Douchez. Rennes responded in the 40th minute with Jérôme Leroy taking an unexpected shot from nearly 30 metres from goal; the shot went past goalkeeper Gauclin, but struck the post going out of play. thumb|left|The final of Coupe de France, ironically a Breton derby, saw wide use of Breton symbols, notably the Gwenn-ha-du. The second half began with a quick attack from Rennes. Capitalizing on a Guingamp turnover, Rennes started a counterattack led by Moussa Sow. Their chance, taken by Leroy, was shot straight at the Guingamp goalkeeper. In the 53rd minute, Rennes almost scored the first goal of the match again when Leroy found Sow. For the second time in the match, however, the shot from Sow hit the post after beating the goalkeeper. Leroy and Sow would be involved in another chance again from Rennes in the 65th minute: after a cross into the box, Sow attempted an overhead kick, but instead knocked the ball into the air and into the path of Leroy, who again blew a chance, sending the ball into the stands despite being about ten metres from goal. Rennes would finally score goal, following a free-kick into the box. The ball travelled passed everyone save for Carlos Bocanegra, who headed the ball past Gauclin to give Rennes a 1–0 lead. Within minutes, however, Guingamp would respond: following a Felipe Saad cross into the box, the ball landed at the feet of Petter Hansson who inadvertently redirected it into the path of Eduardo, who converted to even the match at 1–1. Ten minutes later, Eduardo would strike again when, after a scramble in the box, he found the ball at his feet and proceeded to take a driven, right-footed shot which ran under Douchez to give the Ligue 2 side a 2–1 lead. The goal eventually turned out to be the winner, giving the second division side its first ever Coupe de France title. Guingamp's victory also earned the club an appearance in the 2009–10 UEFA Europa League.http://soccernet.espn.go.com/news/story?id=644915&&cc=5739 https://web.archive.org/web/20110526010643/http://soccernet.espn.go.com/news/story?id=644915&&cc=5739 dead 26 May 2011 Guingamp coach speaks of 'magical' Cup win 2009-05-10 ESPN 2009-05-13http://www.uefa.com/footballeurope/news/kind=2/newsid=828744.html https://web.archive.org/web/20090813163051/http://www.uefa.com/footballeurope/news/kind=2/newsid=828744.html dead 13 August 2009 Guingamp gear up for European rollercoaster 2009-05-11 UEFA 2009-05-13 Match details 9 May 2009 20:45 CET Rennes 1–2 Report Guingamp Bocanegra 69 Eduardo 72 82 Stade de France, Saint-Denis 80,056 Thierry Auriac _rennes_home FF0000 FF0000 FF0000 000000 000000 Rennes _eaguin0809a _eaguin0809a _eaguin0809a FFFFFF FFFFFF FFFFFF FFFFFF _color_3_stripes_black Guingamp _color_3_stripes_black _3_stripes_black Rennes: GK 1 FRA 1974 Nicolas DouchezRB 2 FRA 1974 Rod FanniCB 4 SWE Petter Hansson (c) 88CB 5 CMR Stéphane MbiaLB 3 USA Carlos BocanegraCM 6 FRA 1974 Bruno Cheyrou 89CM 8 FRA 1974 Fabien LemoineAM 10 FRA 1974 Jérôme LeroyRW 9 SEN Moussa Sow 87LW 7 FRA 1974 Romain Danzé 79CF 11 FRA 1974 Olivier ThomertSubstitutes:GK 16 SEN Cheikh N'DiayeDF 12 NGA Elderson EchiéjiléDF 13 FRA 1974 Lucien AubeyMF 14 CGO Prince OniangueFW 15 FRA 1974 Mickaël Pagis 79FW 17 GHA Asamoah Gyan 87FW 18 FRA 1974 Jirès Kembo Ekoko 89Manager:FRA 1974 Guy Lacomberight|290pxGuingamp: GK 1 FRA 1974 Guillaume GauclinRB 2 FRA 1974 Yves DeroffCB 4 FRA 1974 Christian Bassila (c)CB 9 BFA Bakary KonéLB 3 BRA Felipe SaadCM 5 FRA 1974 Lionel MathisCM 8 FRA 1974 Fabrice Colleau 73AM 10 NGA Wilson OrumaRW 11 CPV Gilson Silva 70LW 7 FRA 1974 Richard SoumahCF 6 BRA Eduardo 83Substitutes:GK 16 FRA 1974 Stéphane TrévisanDF 12 FRA 1974 Jean-Christophe VergerolleMF 15 FRA 1974 François BellugouMF 13 BEN Mouritala Ogunbiyi 70FW 14 FRA 1974 Yohann RivièreFW 17 FRA 1974 Cédric LiabeufFW 18 SEN Badara Sène 73Manager:FRA 1974 Victor Zvunka MATCH OFFICIALS Assistant referees: Mickaël Annonier Nicolas Pottier Fourth official: MAN OF THE MATCHMATCH RULES 90 minutes. 30 minutes extra-time (15 minute intervals) Penalty shoot-out if scores level after extra time.
