Semifinals

The draw for the semi-finals of the Coupe de France was conducted on 28 March 2010 during a broadcast of France 2 show Stade 2. The draw was conducted by former Gabon national team manager and former French international Alain Giresse. The matches were contested on 13 and 14 April. The first match was televised on Eurosport and the second match was shown on France 2. The Quevilly – Paris Saint-Germain match was moved to the Stade Michel d'Ornano in Caen, which is located in Lower Normandy, not far from Rouen, which situates in Upper Normandy. The move, similar to the previous round, was made to accommodate the anticipated high attendance for the match and also because the French Football Federation felt the Stade Robert Diochon did not meet the standards needed to host a Coupe de France semi-final match.
