In the absence of Ligue 1 matches, we can always console ourselves with the verbal jousts of its actors. The principal, Jean-Michel Aulas, of course. Friday, the Minister of Sports Roxana Maracineanu invited him in an interview to  L'Alsace "to make a film" of all the scenarios of resumption of the championship that he could propose.

The president of Olympique Lyonnais, fierce supporter of a resumption of Ligue 1, replied on Twitter.

@OL @RoxaMaracineanu @DanielRiolo Madam Minister the scenarios have existed since 04 26! We have reformulated this evening the request to the LFP so that 1 General Assembly take position on the format suggested by UEFA including in August we are counting on you and it's not fiction!

The Sports Minister claims to have "replied to one of the many letters he sent me, where I explained to him the functioning of the State, the Federation, and the League, and the relationships of some with others ". With phase 2 of the deconfinement which authorizes the cinemas to reopen, the ex-swimmer asserts "If Mr. Aulas has different scenarios to propose, I invite him to make a film and to propose it in theaters since there will be public. "
