The Greens, the most successful in Ligue 1 with PSG (with 10 titles), lost the category against Auxerre, at home, by definition on penalties. With this, his fans violently entered the playing field and threw projectiles at the footballers.
Promotion to the French league ended in scandal. The Saint Etienne traditional Gallic football club, relegated to Ligue 2 after falling on penalties with Auxerre, which returns to the highest category after 10 years. The fact is that the winning team could not celebrate due to the the altercations generated by the local fans, who reacted in the worst possible way, consumed the descent.
Within 90 minutes the match ended 1-1, the same result as the first leg. With a 2-2 global tie, the Premier League quota was set from the 12 stages. In this case, Auxerre won, a team in which evolved the former Chilean Pedro Reyes, by 5-4. The last penalty was executed by Birama Touré, which resulted in a goal. Instantly, everything boiled over.
Many Saint-Etienne supporters invaded the lawn immediately after the shooting. For this reason, the visiting footballers were unable to celebrate on the pitch. They fled to the locker room. But that was not all. Several of the “fans” carried flares which they threw at the players. The scene has become dangerous.
The descent of Los Verdes involves the loss of the category of the big winner of the French championship. He has 10 titles, like Paris Saint-Germain. The difference is that the Parisians won most of their trophies in the era of Qatari capitals. Meanwhile, Saint-Étienne have not been champions since 1981.
A new scandal thwarts the organization of major sporting events in France. During the season, it happened many times in league matches, for example with Olympique de Marseille. It suffices to recall what happened on Saturday, as the Champions League final between Liverpool and Real Madrid approached, with the chaos that occurred at the entrance to the Stade de France, in due to the influx of English fans. Hundreds of Reds fans arrived in Paris without tickets to the final. This lack of security generated a delay in the start of the match, no less than 36 minutes.
