Overview
- PSG’s management is set to be called before the LFP disciplinary commission around February 18 following insulting banners, discriminatory chants and other incidents during the Marseille match.
- The Classique ended 5-0 for PSG at the Parc des Princes, with the referee briefly halting play under league protocol due to persistent discriminatory chanting.
- A DPD-branded tifo reading “Les Marseillais, c’est des livreurs” drew widespread criticism as a homophobic reference, while numerous smoke flares were used despite regulations.
- DPD France said it regretted the misuse of its brand and is not filing a complaint for now, stating it will await the commission’s conclusions.
- Minister Aurore Bergé condemned the insults as not belonging to folklore, and MP Danielle Simonnet indicated a referral to the Paris prosecutor alongside a proposal to tighten club responsibility.
