Stephanie Frappart will referee the final of the 105th edition of the Coupe de France between Nantes and Nice, on Saturday, 7 May, at the Stade de France.
Stephanie Frappart is a pioneer. After being the first woman to referee a Ligue 1 match (Amiens-Strasbourg, 28 April 2019), the European Super Cup (Chelsea-Liverpool, 14 August 2019) then in the Champions League (Juventus Turin-Dynamo Kyiv, 2 December 2020), she will become the first female referee of a Coupe de France final. “I am happy and proud of this appointment. I thank the FFF for the trust it places in me. I particularly appreciate this competition, a major event in French football, which mixes amateurs with professionals”, says Stephanie Frappart. “Her appointment rewards both her serious work and performance. It is well deserved”, says Pascal Garibian, technical director of refereeing. Stephanie Frappart will be supported by Mikael Berchebru and Benjamin Pages as assistants, and by Willy Delajod as fourth official. Jeremie Pignard and Hamid Guenaoui will be the video assistant referees.
