In the 75th minute of the Mediterranean derby, supporters poured onto the pitch, a brawl erupted between players, personnel, fans, and stewards.

After Marseille refused to return to the pitch, the match was stopped for almost an hour and eventually abandoned.

"While nothing can excuse the actions of a few individuals guilty of throwing bottles...there is no doubt that it was the attitude and actions of several members of Olympique de Marseille that saw the incident escalate out of control," Nice said in a statement.

They claimed one Marseille assistant coach knocked out a supporter who "remains in hospital" and said two Nice players -- Justin Kluivert and Jean-Clair Todidbo -- were attacked by Marseille security staff.
