"The climate in which Paris Saint-Germain - Olympique de Marseille took place (0-1, Matchday 3 of Ligue 1 Uber Eats, 09/13/2020), is not acceptable, which includes before and after the match, and brought together a lot of what we no longer want to see on a field and on the sidelines of a sporting match," stated the National Council of Ethics of the FFF on 14/09/2020.

"These behaviors obviously contravene the Code of Ethics of the French Football Federation. Under these conditions, the National Council of Ethics of the FFF strongly condemns the all the events that took place within the framework of the PSG - OM meeting," adds this body.

Three red and five yellow cards to the PSG side and two red and seven yellow cards to the Marseille side were distributed by the referee Jérôme Brisard during this match, for a total of "17 cards, a record for a Ligue 1 match in the 21st century," noted Opta, the English statistical data company.
