Lyon-Marseille match abandoned after Payet hit by bottle: official
Sunday's Ligue 1 match between Lyon and Marseille was abandoned nearly two hours after it was interrupted when Dimitri Payet was hit by a water bottle thrown from the crowd.
"Contrary to what was announced, the referee has decided not to restart the game given the security of the players was not guaranteed," the stadium announcer said. Payet received treatment after being struck on the side of the head as he prepared to take a corner in the fifth minute. The France international was also hit by a bottle during a game at Nice in August
