The Disciplinary Committee of the French Professional Football League (LFP) announced on Thursday that it will review the shameful and outrageous singing of Nice fans referring to former Nantes striker Emiliano Sala, who died on January 21, 2019 in a plane crash, causing outrage. The Committee took action after receiving the report from the delegate of the Ligue 1 match between Nice and Saint-Étienne (4-2), on Wednesday, who drew attention to the incident after the events.

The beautiful fans used a song dedicated by Nantes fans to Sala, who died in 2019 at the age of 28 in an accident on the English Channel, while traveling to Cardiff to join his new team. Last Saturday, Nantes beat Nice 1-2 in the French Cup final (1-0).
This incident, which led to numerous judgments, including OGC Nice, took place four days after the Coupe de France final that Aiglons lost to the Canarias (0-1), on Saturday.
“We have reached the heights of stupidity and insolence,” Roxana Maracineanu, current French Sports Minister, told the RTL channel on Thursday. “There are individual penalties, commercial penalties that the club itself can take,” he added.

Nice may have taken civil action against the fans involved. This season, his ultras attacked the field in the match against Marseille, whose players they attacked. Nice was deducted two points (including a third in suspense) and three games were imposed behind closed doors. The fight against Marselle was repeated behind closed doors on a neutral field.
The next meeting of the LFP Disciplinary Committee is scheduled for Wednesday, May 18th.
