Sochaux midfielder Karim Ziani is relishing the opportunity to play at the Stade de France following his side's qualification to the Coupe de France final.

Les Lionceaux beat amateur club Montceau-les-Mines 2-0 to book themselves a place in the final but the minnows put up a good battle as they forced the Ligue 1 side into extra-time.

"We played a very strong team, who were very difficult to handle, it has been very difficult," he told the French press after the game.

"But the most important thing in the cup is to win. We are in the final and that is a dream. I have never played in a final and I don't know the Stade de France.

"Now we know we will play a big name (Marseille or Nantes). But we will celebrate what we have done so far and we will see on May 12."
