Ball IQCoupe de France Winners: Every Final from 1918 to 2026
109 entries · verified 2026-07-20 · free · from the Ball IQ football team
The Coupe de France is French football's oldest and most open knockout competition, first contested in the 1917-18 season and playable by clubs from every tier of the pyramid. That open format is why the final has pitted amateurs against giants, and why each spring a single decider — long staged at the Stade de France — settles the whole tournament.
Red Star and the early Paris clubs dominated the opening decades, but the modern era belongs to Paris Saint-Germain, whose 16 triumphs are a record. Marseille sit next on the all-time list, with Lille, Saint-Étienne and Monaco among the other clubs to have lifted the trophy multiple times.
The table below lists every final by season, with the runner-up and the score, from Olympique de Pantin's inaugural win to RC Lens claiming their first-ever title in 2026. The 1991-92 edition is the only blank on the roll: it was abandoned without a winner after the Furiani stand collapse.
