Still very tense, the match between Olympique de Marseille and Olympique Lyonnais has already caused its first shocks, even though the kick-off has not yet been given. The two teams must face each other on Sunday October 29 from 8:45 p.m., at the end of the 10th day of Ligue 1. But before the match, the OL bus, which was heading towards the Vélodrome stadium, was targeted by projectiles.

Fan buses also targeted

According to our information, two windows of the bus exploded on impact and Fabio Grosso, the Lyon coach, was hit. “The coach is bleeding“, tells us a member of the Rhone club, who specifies that a meeting is underway in the Lyon locker room between the coach, president John Textor and the players. Grosso’s assistant, Raffaele Longo, was also hit in the face following the explosion of the windows. Three buses of supporters, who were able to travel to Marseille, were also stoned on the way to the Vélodrome.
