In a weekend where most favourites triumphed, Paris FC beating the holders was a welcome win for the underdogsBy Get French Football NewsThis year’s Coupe de France was in need of a spark and Paris FC were on hand to provide it. Their league match against Paris Saint-Germain last weekend – the first derby between the clubs in 43 years – was somewhat anticlimactic.

But a disturbing trend is sweeping Australia. Even in Melbourne – where people treat coffee with near-religious reverence – I’m now routinely asked: small or large flat white? I find myself regularly wincing into my keep cup.A large flat white is an oxymoron – a bastardisation of the drink Australia claims to have given the world. The moment it takes a larger form, it stops being a flat white and becomes something else entirely: a milky latte, ordered by those too afraid to admit that’s what they really want.
