Amateurs SR Colmar provided the shock of a busy day in the Coupe de France by dumping out Ligue 1 outfit Lille on penalties.
Despite having a man sent off, the minnows from the CFA - French football's fourth tier - held out for a goalless draw over 120 minutes against their much-changed top-flight opponents before winning through to the last 32 after edging an epic penalty shoot-out 10-9.
Despite that, coach Damien Ott said: "I have mixed feelings - I would rather have played against the true Lille team that I have admired on television.
"I would rather lose 5-0 against that team - we could have learnt a lot and made progress."
Grenoble won the all-Ligue 1 tie against Montpellier 3-2 after extra time thanks to Nassim Akrour's winner.
Victor Hugo Montano's penalty put Montpellier ahead (41) but Daisuke Matsui equalised on the stroke of half-time and Danijel Ljuboja seemed to have won it for the hosts five minutes from time.
But Karim Ait-Fana immediately hit back to ensure extra time - only for Akrour to have the final say.
The remaining top-flight sides in action on Saturday, Sochaux and Lens, progressed courtesy of 1-0 away wins against amateur opposition.
Sloan Privat's goal saw the former past Saint Louis Neuweg, while Lens needed a Stephane Chretien own goal to overcome Compiegne.
Ligue 2 Brest needed extra time to edge past CFA side Pontivy 1-0 thanks to Basile De Carvalho's goal, while Marcus Mokake, Eyemen Henaini and Pierrick Valdivia fired Sedan to a 3-0 win at St-Ouen L'Aumone.
In round 10, CFA side Quevilly produced an upset with a 1-0 win over Ligue 2 Angers thanks to Abdel Ouahbi's 71st-minute goal.
Ligue 1 Bordeaux hammered Ajaccio, from the division below, 5-1 thanks to Fernando Cavenaghi's hat-trick after Jaroslav Plasil and Wendell had put them 2-0 up. Ludovic Guerriero briefly cut Ajaccio's deficit to 3-1.
Also reaching the last 16 were Beauvais, after Romain Canales' brace and a Joffrey Cuffaut strike earned them a 3-0 win over Agen, and Vesoul, who saw off Raon l'Etape thanks to Alain Etame's goal.
