A new episode in the sad saga of violence in amateur football. And it is, once again, extremely serious. This Sunday afternoon, Jean-Mermoz stadium in Orly (Val-de-Marne). The local senior team welcomes Val-de-Fontenay, one of the two clubs from Fontenay-sous-Bois, for a district match. The meeting is balanced but tense. A few minutes from the end of the match, the two teams are tied, 2 all. Until Val-de-Fontenay took the lead by scoring a decisive third goal. But the joy will only be short-lived.
