Marseille will now be the worried team as they are just four points above fifth-placed Lyon as teams fight for European slots next season. Here is a look at the major talking point in Ligue One as we head to the International break.

Home fans disrupt Montpellier v St-Etienne match

The relegation fight between rivals Montpellier and Saint-Etienne was abandoned after home fans threw flares onto the pitch and part of a stand caught fire.

Hosts Montpellier were trailing 2-0 when Sunday’s fixture was stopped in the 62nd minute after Saint-Etienne striker Lucas Stassin scored his second goal of the game. Referee Francois Letexier paused the match for three minutes when flares were thrown on the pitch but players were taken off the field shortly after when smoke and flames could be seen in the stand at Stade de la Mosson.

The game was abandoned following a 20-minute suspension. Montpellier supporter behaviour caused a match to be abandoned in October 2023 when Clermont goalkeeper Mory Diaw was stunned by a firework that exploded next to him after being thrown from the stands.

Montpellier are bottom of Ligue 1 and eight points from safety, with Saint-Etienne one place and five points better off.

PSG hit Marseille to inch closer to the title

Paris Saint Germain inched closer to clinching the Ligue 1 title after hammering their closest rivals Marseille 3-1 over the weekend.

Ousmane Dembele opened the scoring proceedings in the 17th minute. Ruiz grabbed his second assist of the night shortly before half-time when midfielder Nuno Mendes stroked in from close range. Amine Gouiri scored his fourth goal since joining Marseille in January to offer hope of a comeback early in the second half; however, a Pol Lirola own goal put PSG back in control.

The Paris Giants have yet to lose in the league this season, winning 21 games and drawing five, and they have won 11 of 13 played at the Parc des Princes. The victory extends PSG’s lead over second-placed Marseille to 19 points and means they could wrap up the title with six games to spare on 5 April if they win their next two fixtures against Saint-Etienne and Angers
