The 2008 Trophée des Champions Final was a football match that saw the 2007-08 Ligue 1 and Coupe de France champions Olympique Lyonnais face off against FC Girondins de Bordeaux. Since Lyon won both the league and the Coupe de France, they faced the club that finished in second place in Ligue 1 this past season, which was Bordeaux. It was quite controversial however, given that, in 1996, second-ranked team Paris Saint-Germain FC was not given the opportunity to face Division 1 season 1995-96 and Coupe de France champions AJ Auxerre, which was not even declared the winner eventually. The match was held on August 2, 2008 at the Stade Chaban-Delmas in Bordeaux.[1] After 90 minutes of no goals, Bordeaux ended Lyon's impressive streak of six straight Trophée des Champions titles by defeating them 5-4 on penalties.
