The final was broadcast live on France 2.

First division club Lyon defeated semi-professional third-tier Quevilly 1–0 in the final courtesy of a first half goal from Lisandro López to win its fifth Coupe de France title. The title is the club's first domestically since winning the same competition in 2008. The runners-up, Quevilly, alongside fellow National club Gazélec Ajaccio, were awarded the Petit Poucet Plaque, an award given to the best performing non-professional club in the Coupe de France.

Quevilly, a semi-professional club, made its second appearance in the final of the Coupe de France. The club's only other appearance came over 85 years ago when the club was defeated 3–0 by Marseille at the Stade Olympique Yves-du-Manoir in 1927.{{cite web | url = http://www.fff.fr/competitions/php/histo_cfra/histo_cfra.php?sa_no=1927&pj_no=6 | publisher = French Football Federation | title = Marseille v.

Quevilly and Lyon have met only once, coincidentally, during the 1967–68 Coupe de France when Quevilly reached the semi-finals. The two clubs met on 10 March 1968 in the fourth round of the competition. Quevilly won the match 1–0 with a goal from Daniel Horlaville. Quevilly was the third club from the Championnat National to appear in the final of the Coupe de France and attempted to become the lowest-rated club in the competition's history to lift the trophy. Lyon became only the third team in French football history to reach both the Coupe de la Ligue and Coupe de France finals in the same season. Paris Saint-Germain, who have accomplished the feat three times, and Lorient were the other clubs.

On 5 April, the LFP announced that the Direction Nationale de l’Arbitrage (DNA) ({{langx|en|National Directorate of Arbitration}}) had confirmed referee Hervé Piccirillo of Île-de-France would officiate the 2012 Coupe de France final. Piccirillo, a Fédéral F1 referee, the highest designation given to a referee in France, has officiated matches in the UEFA Champions League, UEFA Europa League, international friendlies, and qualifiers for the 2010 FIFA World Cup.{{cite web | url = http://www.fff.fr/arbitrage/cvarbitres/fiche_arbitre.php?in_no=3132373023343731332333373734233130313023313939383030373131233332383323333237382332383934 | archive-url = https://archive.today/20120731144635/http://www.fff.fr/arbitrage/cvarbitres/fiche_arbitre.php?in_no=3132373023343731332333373734233130313023313939383030373131233332383323333237382332383934 | url-status = dead | archive-date = 31 July 2012 | publisher = French Football Federation | title = Hervé Piccirillo FFF Profile | access-date = 16 April 2012 | language = fr }} He presided over five matches involving either of the two teams this season; four matches for Lyon and one for Quevilly. Lyon won two of the four matches, drew one, and were defeated in the other. On 21 January 2012, Piccirillo presided over Quevilly's 1–0 win over Angers in the Round of 32 of this year's Coupe de France. He was assisted by Fredjy Harchay and David Benech, both of Île-de-France. Bartolomeu Varela of Brittany served as the fourth official.{{cite web | url = http://www.fff.fr/arbitrage/actualite/541596_les-arbitres-de-la-finale | publisher = French Football Federation | title = Les arbitres de la finale | date = 16 April 2012 | access-date = 16 April 2012 | language = fr | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20120505130927/http://www.fff.fr/arbitrage/actualite/541596_les-arbitres-de-la-finale | archive-date = 5 May 2012 | url-status = dead }}
