The distress message from the mother of the family attacked by Nantes supporters during the Nantes-OM match, this Friday evening at La Beaujoire (1-1), did not take long to provoke reactions. And that’s quite normal: almost three months to the day after the attack on little Kenzo, in the dressing rooms of the François-Coty stadium in Ajaccio, all of French football had a bitter feeling of deja vu.
As in the immediate aftermath of Kenzo’s attack, which had also had a major echo on social networks, the institutional machine of French football got into full swing to respond to the situation.
This Monday, FC Nantes, which reacted quickly in a press release and announced its intention to file a complaint, explained that it had contacted the family and that the video surveillance images were still being analyzed, in the hope to find and identify the culprits of this violence. “We will communicate in due course, we are told at the club. It would be premature to speak before having all the data. »
The LFP Disciplinary Committee will take up the case
Similarly, the LFP, as it announced to L’Équipe or France Info, confirms to Le Parisien that “like the incidents at Ajaccio-OM last season, the disciplinary committee will take up folder “. On June 21, 2023, a little more than two weeks after Kenzo’s attack, the said disciplinary committee sanctioned the François-Coty Stadium with a closed match for “pre-match incidents, use pyrotechnic devices, intrusions and aggression of a young supporter”. A camera purged during the first day of Ligue 2, on August 6 against Rodez.
After having launched the alert on X (formerly Twitter), Alicia Mahé had testified on BFM TV of the nightmarish evening that she lived with her husband, victim of a heart attack, and her 6-year-old son who was going to the stadium for the first time.
“He (his son) had an OM jersey but he was waving the FC Nantes flag so much, my son is not a fanatic, says his mother. When OM opened the scoring, we showed that we were happy. It was at that time that we suffered a surge of violence from certain individuals who were in the next gallery, the Loire tribune. We were insulted, we were spat on. We received cups of beer. I found out afterwards that we had also been urinated on. Some showed their sex. Without any steward intervention. This is especially what is unfortunate. »
