The men in yellow beat Sochaux in a penalty shootout after a goalless draw away from home and then had a home tie against Vitre in the last 32 which they won 2-0. Last 16 and quarter-final home ties versus Brest and Bastia then followed and both matches ended 2-0 to Nantes. In the semi-final, Nantes took on Monaco at home and, after a 2-2 draw, a 4-2 shootout win gave them a spot in the final.
