Lacrimo gas, water lance … Tense atmosphere before the Bordeaux-Lorient match in Ligue 1

While the Bordeaux club could officially be relegated this Saturday, the Ultramarines had planned to stop the players’ bus to show them their dissatisfaction. “They shit on us, the cup is full, had launched one of the leaders of the UB a little less than two hours before the meeting. Verbal abuse but we don’t hit the players and we don’t throw projectiles. »

While several hundred supporters had positioned themselves around the roundabout adjoining the stadium to watch the arrival of the Bordeaux coach, it finally bypassed this “welcome committee” by passing from behind, which caused a crowd movement. Tear gas and a water lance were used by the CRS to disperse the crowd.

Several streamers are expected to be unfurled by the Ultramarines during the game.
