This happened on my 2003 Fiesta - there was no clutch cable.
The lever arm of the clutch pedal presses against the clutch's hydraulic pump - if the clip falls off - as mine did - the clutch pedal becomes limp.
I fixed mine with a cable tie - it helped access to remove some cosmetic panels - just a couple of screws - 10 minutes work.
Good Luck..., November 2016
