The French Ligue 1 match was canceled due to unusual events that occurred before the match.
Ruslan Malinovsky’s former club Marseille could have big problems in the French championship. The fact is that the fans of this club delayed the match against Lyon.
The next confrontation, considered one of the most violent in football, did not take place due to the aggressive actions of the Provencal ultras.
Fans pelted and threw stones at the Weavers’ club bus, smashing its windows, but most importantly hurting people.
