More than two weeks after the cancellation of OM-OL due in particular to the stone crushing of the Lyon delegation’s coaches, the Rhone club could be sanctioned.
October 29 is still sadly remembered. While the meeting between Olympique de Marseille and Olympique Lyonnais was to take place at the Vélodrome stadium, the organizers, by mutual agreement with the authorities, decided to cancel the match due to the stone crushing of several Lyon coaches, the Rhone club could well be sanctioned due to the behavior of some of its supporters present in the visitors’ park.
If the Disciplinary Commission of the Professional Football League (LFP) judged the incidents of October 29 which occurred outside the stadium not attributable to OM, it will also deliver its verdict on the famous incidents this time which occurred in the stadium and involving Lyon supporters. As recalled RMC this Tuesday, several images posted on social networks showed OL supporters performing “ openly racist gestures » facing their Marseille counterparts. “ Nazi salutes and monkey expressions » were thus listed.
Expected identifications
If Olympique Lyonnais had then assured that they wanted “ identify individuals“, the LFP Disciplinary Commission should announce sanctions this Wednesday. The media notably mentioned a closure of the Lyon parking lot for several matches, or even a total or partial closed session of the Groupama Stadium. The League also hopes that the possible culprits will be personally identified. As for the match which could not be played, it was postponed to December 6.
