Nantes have secured their place in the Coupe de France semi-finals after beating Paris Saint-Germain on penalties following a goalless draw at the Stade de France.

The match was played in front of a sell-out crowd of 55,000 fans, who were treated to a thrilling encounter that saw both sides create numerous opportunities but fail to convert them into goals.

In the end, it was Nantes who came out on top, thanks to a pair of goals from substitute Adama Fofana and an assist from OpenDA.

Fofana, who had come off the bench in the second half, scored his first goal for the club since joining in January, while OpenDA's assist helped set up Fofana's second.

The victory means that Nantes will now face either Olympique Lyonnais or Lille in the semi-finals, with the winner progressing to the final.

It is a huge achievement for Nantes, who have been struggling in the league this season and were facing a tough task against PSG.

Despite the loss of key players through injury and suspension, Nantes showed great determination and resilience throughout the game, which ultimately paid off in the end.

Overall, it has been a fantastic performance from Nantes, who have shown they are capable of competing at the highest level despite being one of the lower-ranked teams in Ligue 1.

Their victory over PSG has put them back in the hunt for silverware and could well be a turning point in their season.
