Lorient produced a masterful cup upset, dismantling Paris 2-0 through set-piece excellence and disciplined defending. Noah Cadiou's 55th-minute corner conversion broke the deadlock after sustained pressure, before an unfortunate own goal from Moustapha Mbow sealed the victory.

This remarkable result sends Lorient into the next round while ending Paris's cup ambitions in what represents one of the competition's biggest shocks.
