Yet another episode of violence in French football. The match valid for the last day of League 2 between Bordeaux And Rodez was suspended in the 22nd minute, after a player from the visiting team, Lucas Buades, was attacked by a home training ultr. Buades was celebrating the 1-0 goal under the curve occupied by the opposing fans, which at that moment deprived Bordeaux of their last chances of promotion.

Player who was down for minutes before being taken to hospital: according to the French media he reported a concussion. Bordeaux, in addition to the game lost at the table, risks a penalty and several matches behind closed doors.

At first the match was interrupted for long minutes by the referee who then, in a last minute press conference, announced the definitive end of the match: The player couldn’t resume the match, so we respected the rules, his words. Bordeaux for its part immediately condemned the gesture and filed a complaint against the fan.

The interruption of the match does not only concern the two teams, which on this 38th day each had their own objectives. Bordeaux, which aimed at promotion, for now he has seen it fade in favor of Metz (victorious over Bastia). the Rodez, waiting to understand if the match will be replayed or if he can celebrate the victory at the table, instead finds himself virtually demoted. But the verdict of the disciplinary commission could change everything.
