Lens fans banned from traveling to game at Paris Saint-Germain

Lens fans will be banned from travelling to watch their side play Paris Saint-Germain in the capital on March 7 after crowd trouble last weekend.

The LFP's disciplinary committee announced the punishment on Thursday evening after Lens' 4-1 defeat to Caen on Saturday was interrupted by crowd trouble.

The match was delayed for 15 minutes in the 85th minute after a number of Lens fans invaded the pitch.

"The Commission has decided as a precautionary measure to impose a ban on the travel of Lens supporters for the match against Paris Saint-Germain (28th round of Ligue 1) and to intruct club officials to attend its meeting on Wednesday, March 25, 2015," an LFP statement read.
