PARIS: The disciplinary committee of the French League (LFP) will meet on Monday to discuss the crowd trouble that marred Saturday's RC Lens v Lille derby, the LFP said on Sunday.
"The LFP strongly condemns the outbursts, the invasion of the pitch and the violence that occurred during the match between RC Lens and LOSC Lille," the governing body said in a statement.
"In view of the seriousness of the events, the Disciplinary Committee will meet on Monday 20 September."
The kickoff to the second half of the Ligue 1 game, which Lens won 1-0 to move up to provisional second in the standings, was delayed by about half an hour after crowd trouble erupted at halftime.
