Olympique Lyonnais fans have been banned from travelling to the rescheduled Ligue 1 game at Olympique de Marseille due to the risk of serious confrontation between supporters, the French Interior Ministry said on Tuesday.
The original game, on Oct. 29, was called off after Lyon's team bus was pelted with stones, injuring coach Fabio Grosso, since replaced, as the players made their way to the Stade Velodrome. The rescheduled game takes place on Wednesday.
"On Wednesday 6 December 2023 from midnight to midnight, the individual or collective travel of any person claiming to be a supporter of the Olympique Lyonnais club or behaving as such, is prohibited between the municipalities of the Rhone department and the municipality of Marseille," the Order in the Official Journal said.
