Fans Violence Stop Match at Marseille

Fans violence interrupted Marseille's Europa League draw with Galatasaray. The match was stopped for around eight minutes at Stade Velodrome.

Flares and objects were thrown by rival fans towards the end of the first half despite them being separated. The match was then halted to allow the police to restore order in the stadium.

Galatasaray boss Fatih Terim, and club captains Fernando Muslera and Dimitri Payet approached fans in an attempt to calm the situation. The game resumed with about eight minutes remaining in the first period to the sound of firecrackers still going off in the stands.
