The hooligans ran onto the field, attacked the players of the visiting team who fled to the locker room, threw torches, and tried to physically deal with them, and the home players were also attacked.
It is certain that the Saint-Etienne team will face great penalties, in addition to being relegated to a lower rank, and these French greats are certainly facing difficult times.
