Angers ended fifth-division team Chambery's surprising run in the French Cup on Wednesday to reach the semifinals with a 3-0 win.
Chambery had knocked out topflight teams Brest, Monaco and Sochaux in previous rounds, but they could not rouse themselves for another surprise against the more modest Angers.
Angers striker Henri Saivet scored the opener in the 45th minute with a powerful right-footed strike before midfielder Sebastien Renouard doubled the second-division team's lead in the 63rd.
Argentine midfielder Diego Sebastian Gomez scored the third in the 84th with a shot into the top right corner.
"We are disappointed because when we enter the pitch it's only to win," Chambery coach David Guion said. "I'm proud of my players and of what they accomplished. This adventure will allow us to reach another level and will help us summon our strengths to gain promotion."
The game was moved to a bigger stadium in nearby Grenoble given the interest Chambery had generated in the alpine community, and drew about 15,000 fans. No other amateur teams has ever won three consecutive matches against Ligue 1 clubs in the French Cup.
"We achieved something fantastic, we took them seriously and we played a big match," Angers coach Jean-Louis Garcia said.
Angers reached the Cup semifinals for the first time in 42 years.
Defending champion Paris Saint-Germain struggled to break the deadlock against second-division leader Le Mans at the Parc des Princes but finally advanced with a 2-0 win after extra time.
Substitute striker Jean-Chistophe Bahebeck opened PSG's account in the 108th, turning a defender and slotting a low strike into the net.
Midfielder Neeskens Kebano then met Ceara's fine cross in the 116th to give PSG more room to breathe.
League leader Lille also advanced with a 5-3 win over Lorient in a penalty shootout after the teams drew 0-0 following extra time.
"Their goalkeeper was decisive several times tonight, but the most important thing was the result," Lille coach Rudi Garcia said.
Nice reached the semis with a 3-2 win at Reims after extra time on Tuesday.
