Gaston Cyprès (19 November 1884 – 17 August 1925) was a French international football player.[4] At club level he played as midfielder in CA Paris.[3] He participated as striker[1] in the inaugurational match[5] of the France national team against Belgium on 1 May 1904. He was also one of the first three French to score a goal in the tricolour jersey (white at that time), with his equalizer in the 87th minute (3–3),[1] thereby also setting the end score of the international friendly. In his six selections with Les Bleus, he scored twice (in France's first two matches).[1] In 1908 during the only match he played with a French team at the Summer Olympics, he and his team suffered a 1–17 defeat against Denmark.[1]
