After PSG - Dortmund in the Champions League on Wednesday, it is the turn of the Ligue 1 match Lyon - Reims to be announced as being played in camera on Friday. The Rhone club announced the news Monday afternoon, after the speech of the Minister of Sports Roxana Maracineanu, earlier in the day.

The meeting between Olympique Lyonnais and Stade de Reims scheduled for Friday at 8.45 p.m. will be played behind closed doors, in accordance with decisions taken by the government to combat the spread of the new coronavirus, Olympique Lyonnais (OL) announced on Monday. Sports Minister Roxana Maracineanu said earlier Monday that behind closed doors could become the "organizing doctrine" for sporting events to deal with coronavirus.
