Marseille ordered to close sections of stadium for

MARSEILLE, France -- Marseille have been ordered to close sections of their Velodrome stadium following crowd trouble last weekend. The French league discipline commission issued the provisional sanction on Thursday after a meeting with Marseille officials before a final decision is made at a later date. Marseille were sanctioned for their fans' behavior during last Sunday's 1-1 draw with Lyon. The match was suspended for about 20 minutes in the second half after fans threw projectiles including glass bottles onto the pitch. Marseille striker Michy Batshuayi was hit by a fire bomb and police forces were deployed in front of the Marseille kop before the match restarted. Marseille fans also caused widespread indignation in French media after they hung an effigy of former player Mathieu Valbuena, who was booed during the whole game on his return to the southern club.
