This match played on May 3 was definitively interrupted a few minutes from the end, when the score was 1-1, after smoke bombs were thrown onto the lawn of the Aube stadium, some of which had also been sent back towards the stands by Trojan players.
For these incidents, and “after reading the investigation report”, the LFP announced Wednesday evening “the loss of the match by penalty” for Estac, as well as “the withdrawal of a suspended point” in the ranking. This measure does not change the fate of the two clubs: 17th with 41 points, Troyes is relegated to the National, just like Valenciennes, which remains 20th and last despite winning this meeting, with 29 points (instead of 26).
For these incidents, the LFP also sentenced Estac to two closed-door meetings at home, one of which already took place last Friday against Annecy (1-1), as part of the 38th and final day. Individually, four players from Troyes, Kyliane Dong, Rudy Kohon, Abdoulaye Ndiaye and Junior Olaitan, received three matches of firm suspension, the LFP specifying that this sanction came into force from May 28.
It therefore does not include the precautionary layoff decided by the Trojan club on May 8. Estac also announced that day that it had canceled the subscriptions of nine of its supporters, identified using video surveillance.
“The throwing of pyrotechnic devices onto the pitch by ticket holders is considered by the club to be dangerous and irresponsible acts”, had castigated the Aube club in a press release. “In addition, we were disappointed to see four players send some smoke bombs from the field into the stands. Despite multiple provocations, it is clear that their reactions were equally dangerous.he added.
