Toulouse v Troyes Ligue 1 game postponed amid unrest in France
Oct 21 - Toulouse's home Ligue 1 fixture against Troyes has been postponed from Saturday to Sunday at the request of the local prefecture, the French league's governing body LFP said on Wednesday.
• France had some of its worst unrest in years this month, with thousands of people arrested and shops looted or damaged during protests over high prices and declining public services.
• Following the protests, Toulouse imposed an overnight curfew in parts of the city, which is set to end on Sunday.
• "At the request of the Haute-Garonne Prefecture and in agreement with the Ligue1+ broadcaster, the Toulouse FC - ESTAC Troyes match ... is moved to Sunday, October 25 at 5:15 PM," LFP said in a statement.
• On Monday, Ligue 1 clubs Olympique de Marseille and Lille said their official stores were looted during the unrest. REUTERS
