In a good-natured atmosphere, the supporters rushed to the players to congratulate them by dancing and singing "we are in the final".
Quickly, the stewards created a separate space for the players at the entrance to the changing rooms.
And after a few minutes, the announcer asked the supporters to return to their stands to go out calmly "paying particular attention to the children".

The announcer had already intervened during the match, when a smoke bomb launched from the stands landed in front of the goal of Nantes goalkeeper Rémy Descamps.
Referee Benoît Bastien went to the edge of the field to speak with officials and the stadium announcer warned that in the event of another throw, the match would be definitively stopped.
