In shock after their bus was stoned on the approach to the Vélodrome, the Lyon players remained discreet. Jeffinho nevertheless posted a message on social networks.
The time has come for consternation. On its way to the Stade Vélodrome, the Lyon players’ bus was indeed targeted by Marseille supporters and saw two of its windows shattered. An attack which resulted in a severe head injury to Fabio Grosso, who arrived at the Vélodrome with a bloody face and was forced to have 12 stitches.
If some Lyon executives were ready to play the match, the referee Mr. Letexier finally declared the match postponed. A logical choice for most actors. And if the Rhone players did not react to the press, Jeffinho published a message on social networks.
“Playing football has become a dangerous profession,” he wrote in reference to his coach’s injury.
