Kick-off at Stade Gabriel Montpied was delayed after police deployed tear gas to break up fights between rival fans

Kick-off between Clermont and Marseille was scheduled for 8pm GMT but was delayed due to tear gas being deployed by police.
Fights are reported to have broken out between rival fans outside the ground, with police forced to deploy tear gas to break it up. The tear gas then blew on to the pitch, so players were taken to the dressing room.
