When The Bee Stings An Elephant!

So how do you even begin comparing a tiny bee with the mighty elephant? It may look ironic but then the fact is that a bee can actually hammer an elephant out of the way, especially if it got inside the trunk: that is the experience of the smallest teams to ever win the French Cup. We all thought the race is for the swift so not many people gave a thought to this team that just came from the shadows to send the giants fleeing with their pants down. Stade de France was the location where the major slaughter was done by the little outfit known as En Avant Guingamp.

The club, which is home to many international stars, has earned itself a ticket to the European Championships for lifting the Coupe de France which also happens to be their greatest victory sine birth in 1912. Their now enthralled manager, Victor Zvunka will have to prove they did not bite more than they can chew by doing a very delicate balancing act between their French league assignments and the blazing hot European fixtures.

Even though they may be seen to be starting the European championships as the underdogs, they could as well have enough surprises to unleash to fans that must be hungry for fresh blood in the pitch to replace the now ageing players who have been on their lips for as long as they can remember. With determination and hard work, there is nothing that can be impossible for this upcoming team. All we can tell them is “be creative, use unconventional thinking and have the guts to carry it out.” Lee Iacocca.
