Paris Saint-Germain will head to third-tier Le Mans in the last 16 of the French Cup after the draw was made on Thursday.

PSG, 15-time winners, squeezed through to the next round after beating fifth-division Espaly on Wednesday while Le Mans, the home of the 24-hour car race, beat Valenciennes on penalties earlier in the week.

Bourgoin-Jallieu's fellow National 3 club Dives Cabourg will head to Cannes from a league above them.
