Ligue 1: investigation opened for “aggravated violence” and “damage” after Metz-Lorient. Police officers were, in particular, injured by smoke bombs and barriers thrown by Metz supporters after their seventh defeat in a row.
At this stage of the investigation, no arrests have been made. On Sunday, FC Metz suffered its seventh consecutive defeat in Ligue 1 against Lorient (2-1), which angered some Grenats supporters. A few dozen of them committed damage by trying to force the barriers leading to the courtyard and the underground parking lot.
