Ligue 2 2022-23 was to deliver its verdict this evening and this will not yet be the case due to the exceptional and extremely serious events in Bordeaux – Rodez… And a moment of confusion over Le Havre – Dijon.
Le Havre had a little scare because of an early invasion of the field, the HAC finally validated, 20 minutes late, the descent into National 1 of Dijon by Pascal Dupraz, his accession to Ligue 1 as well as his title of champion. A single goal from Casimir was enough to make the oldest club happy (1-0). FC Metz, who beat Bastia (3-2), will have to wait to find out if they can find the elite, but the Garnets are in more than favorable conditions because they would need a very large victory for Bordeaux over a match that is not certain to replay…
At the bottom of the table, there were also some twists and turns. Stade Lavallois, which returned Amiens in the money-time (2-1), escapes in-extremis like Pau and Valenciennes. For the last relegated, it should be Annecy, beaten in Paris (0-1), but it will also depend on this Bordeaux – Rodez…
Decision Monday for Bordeaux – Rodez
A very tense evening marked by incidents in Nîmes and Bordeaux where the meetings were interrupted. In the Gard, the Nîmes supporters caused a 10-minute stoppage by sending smoke bombs onto the field from outside the stadium. Tear gas from the police to disperse the crowd forced the referee to stop the match for about ten minutes.
At Matmut Atlantique, the accident was even more serious with a match stopped in the 25th minute after a supporter entered the field to push the Ruthenian striker Luca Buades. The player evacuated by the Samu, the delegate made the decision not to resume the match. A Bordeaux defeat on the green carpet is becoming clearer… But it is not yet official! And inevitably there is a doubt about the identity of the last club relegated to National 1… As well as about the official rise of FC Metz.
The LFP will decide on Monday, during an exceptional commission, to know whether or not this match between Bordeaux and Rodez must be replayed or not. As a reminder, the Girondins can still catch up with the Garnets in the event of a broad success. On the side of Bordeaux, we have already reacted to this incredible story: “The club strongly condemns this gesture and intends to defend its rights. The club will of course file a complaint against this supporter.
