PARIS (AP) — Fraser Hornby was on the field only three minutes when he scored with seconds of injury time remaining as first division Reims scraped a 1-0 win at amateur side Thaon to reach the last 16 of the French Cup. In the day’s last game 10-time Cup winner Marseille won 3-0 at amateur side Chauvigny with Poland striker Arkadiusz Milik opening the scoring. First division teams Brest, Monaco, Montpellier, Nantes and Saint-Etienne also advanced. But 2019 champion Rennes lost to second-tier Nancy 4-3 on penalty kicks after a 1-1 draw and second-tier Bastia beat top-flight Clermont 2-0.
