Throwing of bottles and other objects took place during the Classic Sunday evening. An intruder also entered the lawn.
The Ligue 1 Classic between Olympique de Marseille and Paris Saint-Germain is in full swing at the Stade Vélodrome. The atmosphere is incandescent and the spectacle is there (a goal refused by the VAR on both sides). But the throwing of projectiles, when the Parisians took corners, somewhat tarnished the table despite the presence of removable nets. Several OM players (Payet, Guendouzi) and the Vélodrome announcer asked the supporters concerned to stop. In the second period, a spectator thwarted security and entered the pitch to go talk to Lionel Messi. He was calmly escorted by the stewards.
Calls for calm before the match
On Friday, Marseille President Pablo Longoria had addressed an open letter to supporters asking them not to provoke overflows during this shock. Dimitri Payet did the same on social networks on Saturday. Remember that OM are under the threat of a withdrawal point in the standings since the incidents in Angers. Before the kickoff of the Classic on Sunday evening, a huge “LFP MERDA” tifo was deployed at the Stade Vélodrome and smoke was cracked.
