La Coupe de l'Outre-Mer de football 2012 (English: The 2012 Overseas Football Cup) was the third edition of the Coupe de l'Outre-Mer, a football tournament for the overseas departments and territories of France. It took place from 22 September to 29 September 2012 in Île-de-France, France.

Contents

Eight teams entered the third edition of the competition. The final was played at the Stade de Michel Hidalgo in Saint-Gratien and was contested by Réunion and Martinique in a replay of the 2008 and 2010 finals. After a 2–2 draw, Réunion won 10–9 in a penalty shoot-out.

The tournament marked the last appearance of the Saint Pierre and Miquelon national football team.

Background

The Tournoi des Champions Antilles-Guyane was the first football competition played by club teams from the overseas departments and territories of France. It was contested by teams from French Guiana, Guadeloupe and Martinique and began in 1963. The Coupe D.O.M. and Coupe T.O.M were later introduced and the winners of each would play off against each other in the Coupe des Clubs Champions de l'Outre-Mer. [1]

In 2008, the Coupe de l'Outre-Mer was introduced for the representative teams of the overseas departments and territories as a replacement for the Coupe des Clubs Champions de l'Outre-Mer. [1]

In the inaugural edition, Réunion defeated Martinique 1–0 in the final. [2] Two years later, Martinique gained revenge to win the trophy, defeating Réunion 5–3 on penalties in the final. [3]

Format

Eight teams took part in the competition. They were drawn into two single round robin groups of four teams. Unusually, four points were awarded for a win rather than three. Drawn matches in the group stage would end in a penalty shootout for a bonus point. The winning team from each group would contest the final, the runners-up would contest the third-place match, the third-placed teams would contest the fifth-place match and the fourth-placed teams would contest the seventh-place match [4]

Draw

The draw for the group stage was made on 20 April 2012. The finalists from the 2010 edition, Martinique and Réunion, were seeded for the draw. [5]

Group stage

Group A

Réunion won all three of their matches to progress to the final. [4]
