In November a bottle was thrown from the stands in Lyon and hit the head of captain Marseille Dimitri Payet.

Following the incident, the Olympic Park, the team's field, was temporarily closed, and Paella even announced that he would file a lawsuit.

On December 8, the French association determined that a point would be deducted from Lyon's balance sheet.

The current case in Paris is just another link in a violent chain of events recorded this season in France.
