France Cancels Remainder Of Ligue 1 Season 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Wed Apr 29, 2020 1:13 am

French Prime Minister Edouard Philippe announced on Tuesday that no matches will take place in France until at least September. 

\"Big sporting events will not be able to take place before September,\" Philippe said. \"The 2019-20 season, notably for football, will not be able to resume.\"

The decision ends the seasons for Ligue 1 and Ligue 2.

PSG, 12 points clear at the top of the table with a game in hand, also face an anxious wait to discover if they will be crowned champions.

A big mistake! all sports league should go with the "bubble city" concept to finish their seasons.
