PARIS: The French The Ligue 1 disciplinary committee has ordered Marseille to play one game behind closed doors after crowd trouble earlier in the season at a game against Paris Saint-Germain.

Hooligans threw a variety of missiles onto the pitch and at players every time Neymar or Messi went over to take a corner. The trouble prompted the referee to halt the match briefly on several occasions.

In one incident a fan jumped onto the pitch during the second half with the apparent intention of chasing down Lionel Messi.

However Marseille may feel they have escaped lightly. Coach Jorge Sampaoli had feared a possible points penalty.
