Last Sunday, the management of the Rousson club indicated that they were shocked because one of their players was the subject, according to them, of racist insults as was the referee who decided to stop the match at half-time while Le Vigan led 1 to 0. Simon Clément does not quite have this version of the facts.
He indicates that the referee of the match informed him that he had been insulted several times by part of the public: “He asked me to intervene so that this would stop or the match would be stopped if it continued.
