In the French football championship, the teams are in tears because of the tear gas

Elements of the tear gas chemical reached the pitch and at that moment the players covered their eyes and noses as the corrosive substances of the tear gas had spread all over the football stadium.

Shocking scenes in France.

After a while, the main referee of the game, Jeremy Piñjars, announced that all the football players on the field should go to the dressing rooms and the game will resume when the tear gas has been dispersed.

However, the match resumed later and after a short break, the “Toulouse” team won 4:2 over the “Montpellier” team.

Toulouse vs Montpellier this afternoon suspended after the away fans were lobbing tear gas at the home supporters.

This is also, sadly & unacceptably, becoming Ligue 1 heritage.
