Ligue 1 has moved several weekend matches due to public protests across France. Lyon's home game against Angers, originally scheduled for Saturday at 8:45 p.m. local time, will now be played on Sunday afternoon. The Professional Football League (LFP) made the change at the request of local government officials.
Additionally, games hosted by Nice and Lorient have been rescheduled to Friday evening and Monday evening, respectively. The protests, which have drawn hundreds of thousands of participants, are driven by rising living costs and poor school conditions. The unrest has also led to attacks on city halls and public buildings, straining police and security resources.
