Lyon-Marseille, the big game of matchday 14 of Ligue 1, was interrupted with just five minutes to go. When he was about to take a corner kick, Marseilles forward Dmitri Payet was hit by a water bottle thrown by the home team’s supporters and immediately the match referee interrupted the game, ordering the players to collect to the bathhouse. This season, Payet was at the center of the confusion in the meeting between Nice and Marseille, retaliating by throwing home supporters. At the time, the game was suspended and later repeated.
Almost two hours after the interruption, Rudy Buquet, referee of the match, decided not to resume the game, considering that there were no safety conditions for the players.
