The2011 Trophée des champions (English:2011 Champions Trophy) was the 16th edition of theFrench super cup. The match was to be contested by the winners ofLigue 1the previous season,Lille, and the defendingCoupe de France champions. However, due to Lille also winning theCoupe de Francethe previous season, the club faced the runners-up of the previous league campaignMarseille.[2] The match was played, for the third consecutive season, on international soil at theStade de Tanger inTanger,Morocco.[2] Like the previous two seasons, the idea was to promoteFrench football abroad, but this time more specifically in Africa and theArab world. The match was televised live onCanal+ in France and throughout 77 countries in the world, a new record for country viewership.[3] On 21 July 2011, it was confirmed by theLigue de Football Professionnel that Bouchaïb El Ahrach would officiate the match.[4]Marseille trailed Lille by 3–1 with five minutes to go but came back to win 5–4.[5][6]
