Activists were victims of severe repression on Sunday evening at the Parc des Princes, on the sidelines of the women’s D1 match between PSG and OL.
The Les Dégommeuses association was at the Parc des Princes on Sunday evening to follow the championship match between PSG and OL women, but also and above all to show its support for two figures in women’s football who recently denounced sexual assault: The Spanish Jennifer Hermoso and the French Kadidiatou Diani.
Committed to the fight against sexism, discrimination and LGBT-phobias, the said association thus displayed the following banner in the stands: “ Jenni, Kadi, we believe you #SeAcabo “. A message immediately censored by the security service of the local team, in a severe and even violent repression on the part of certain agents.

Also present, the Paris municipal councilor labeled Europe Ecology The Greens Alice Coffin denounced the scene on social networks, not without making the link with the recent homophobic chants sung at the Parc des Princes: “ The head of security who came to calm his troops, unfortunately a little late, recognized that the intervention methods were dysfunctional. PSG, you are obviously much cooler with homophobic chants than with the “we believe you” that we chanted. »
