Coupe de la Ligue Re-Cap:-: Angers stunned by Miracoli winner

There was a big upset in the Coup de la Ligue on
Tuesday as Angers, second in Ligue 1, were dumped
out by Tours.

Ligue 1 high-flyers Angers suffered a surprise exit from the
Coup de la Ligue following a 1-0 defeat to second-tier side
Tours.

Angers have enjoyed an impressive start to the campaign and
sit second in France's top division, but Luca Miracoli's 53rd-
minute effort consigned them to defeat.

Stephane Moulin made sweeping changes to his squad with
Sunday's clash with Monaco in mind, and ultimately paid the
price with a loss on the road at the Ligue 2 outfit.

Elsewhere in the third round, Laval defeated Evian 5-4 on
penalties, after their clash had finished 2-2.

Laval took a 2-1 lead in extra-time through Adrien Monfray and
although Kevin Hoggas forced penalties for Evian, they
ultimately lost the shootout.

A 59th-minute effort from Abdoulaye Doucoure sent Rennes
through to the fourth round, with a 1-0 win over Bastia in the
other match.
