N3. SP Milizac – GSI Pontivy, this Saturday at 5 PM

How did you make it to the French firefighters team?

Antoine Le Callonnec: I am a volunteer firefighter in Plumelec and have been on the French team for three years. I will be making my 14th appearance. Wearing the French jersey, hearing the national anthem before each game, it’s quite something!

Titouan Guégan: On my part, I am a professional firefighter in Brest and have been on the French team since 2024. Whether you are a professional firefighter or not, it is a pride to represent our profession internationally.

How do you see this final against England?

ALC: Two years ago, in France, we lost to the English. We have a revenge to take. The team has strengthened. There are many N3 players, our captain has played in N2, and we even have a teammate who played professionally in Saint-Étienne!

TG: I feel the team is ready for this championship, we are progressing. Everyone is naturally motivated, and we will give everything to come back with the first place.

Your two clubs will face each other in parallel.

ALC: It’s a particular match. They will be looking to avenge our victory at their place in the Coupe de France. My teammates will also be motivated because they are the only team that beat us in the championship. Moreover, after our two last draws, the guys will be highly motivated.

TG: We will follow the match from a distance. Milizac will do everything to take all three points, like in the first leg. I trust the guys to give their all, and I will be thinking of them.
